UNSPSC 60131101: Trumpets

UNSPSC 60131101 Trumpets is a Commodity code that encompasses state and local procurement of band and orchestral instruments for school music programs, with recent solicitations showing demand across brass, woodwind, percussion, and string instruments alongside cases, stands, and related accessories. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix—Norwalk Public Schools (Connecticut), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Forsyth County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Bibb County School District (Georgia), and Wicomico County Public Schools (Maryland) all posted opportunities within the past four months. Beyond school districts, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited musical instruments for an active treatment facility, and Fairfax County Government joined its school district in a joint musical-instruments RFP. The scope of work ranges from individual instrument purchases (the Norwalk RFP budgeted $270,000 for elementary-band instruments) to comprehensive district-wide stock replenishment (the Muscogee County ITB specified over 600 line items including named manufacturers such as Yamaha, Selmer, Jupiter, and Pearl across multiple grade and proficiency levels). Band repair services also appear under this code, as evidenced by Bibb County School District's RFQ for brass, percussion, and woodwind repair covering 38 school locations.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast, particularly Georgia (three separate school-district solicitations) and neighboring states. Muscogee County School District posted the largest and most detailed opportunity—an ITB with over 600 line items, a one-year contract term with three automatic renewals, and delivery FOB destination throughout the district, with bids due September 9, 2026 and board award anticipated October 19, 2026. Wicomico County Public Schools (Maryland) issued IFB 58000-261 for 85 line items of instruments and pianos with sealed bids due June 5, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST, including full-replacement warranty and tiered discount options on catalog items. The Norwalk RFP (Connecticut) uses a Bonfire Hub platform with a Q&A window through October 16, 2026, and proposals due October 27, 2026. Forsyth County Schools (Georgia) and Fairfax County (Virginia) issued parallel term-contract solicitations for band equipment and musical-instruments MSRP discounts respectively, while Bibb County School District's band-repair RFQ specifies a one-year initial term with four optional renewals and a seven-business-day repair completion preference for vendors within 250 miles.
