UNSPSC 85901257 Conditioned play audiometry assessment using audiovisual equipment is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurements maps poorly to the abstract code name. The recent opportunities tagged under this code actually solicit sign language interpreting, special education contracted services (including interpreting, audiology, and related services), and data abstraction systems — none of which align with pediatric hearing assessment using play-based protocols. The code shows little relevant recent activity in its stated scope.

The interpreting services work dominates the recent postings. Katy Independent School District (Texas) issued RFP #2518YT for sign language interpreting services across the West 10 RDSPD/Deaf Education Cooperative, with proposals due July 8, 2026, covering certified and pre-certified American Sign Language interpreters, Communication Access Real-Time Translation (CART), and specialty interpreters on an hourly basis for a potential five-year term through August 31, 2031. Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida) issued RFP 26041-DST for interpreting services for deaf and hard-of-hearing students, with an estimated annual budget of $950,000, proposals due April 15, 2026, and a one-year initial term renewable for up to four years; the district currently serves approximately 750 deaf and hard-of-hearing students and has experienced doubled interpreter vacancies since 2021-22. Special education contracted services RFPs from Tacoma Public Schools (Washington) and Eanes Independent School District (Texas) listed interpreting and audiology among broader service suites but did not isolate those line items. The geographic spread includes Texas, Washington, and Florida, with the code's misclassification evident across multiple school districts sourcing interpreting rather than pediatric audiometry services.
