UNSPSC 52161515: Compact disk players or recorders

UNSPSC 52161515 Compact disk players or recorders is a Commodity code that covers audio playback and recording equipment used in educational and institutional settings. State and local governments soliciting under this code seek new, professional-grade CD players, recorders, and related audio equipment—typically as part of broader music lab, classroom sound system, and portable audio infrastructure projects. School districts represent the primary issuing body under this code, procuring equipment to support music education programs, classroom instruction, and event sound reinforcement across multiple campuses serving substantial student populations.

A pre-bid conference is scheduled for October 8, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. EST via Zoom, and the procurement carries a 15 percent Small Local Business Enterprise contracting goal.
