UNSPSC 60131210: Ocarinas

UNSPSC 60131210 Ocarinas, a Commodity code, does not align with current state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span a much broader scope: school districts are soliciting comprehensive musical-instrument contracts covering woodwinds, brass, strings, percussion, and keyboards — saxophones, clarinets, trumpets, trombones, violins, timpani, marimbas, pianos, and ancillary items such as cases, stands, and bows. The issuing bodies are school districts (Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Forsyth County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, and Wicomico County Public Schools in Maryland). Vendors responding to these solicitations must carry general liability insurance typically at $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 per occurrence, provide proof of non-debarment and federal work authorization, and meet delivery and warranty requirements. Contracts typically run one to three years with automatic renewal provisions.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and the Mid-Atlantic. The Muscogee County School District issued ITB 27-002 for over 600 line items of musical instruments with a response due September 9, 2026 and contract effective October 20, 2026 through October 19, 2027. Forsyth County Schools posted solicitation B26-09 for band equipment with a July 30, 2026 response deadline. Fairfax County Public Schools and Fairfax County Government solicited term contracts for discounted instruments with a response due August 6, 2026. Wicomico County Public Schools in Maryland issued IFB 58000-261 for 85 line items including pianos, woodwinds, brass, percussion, and strings with a June 5, 2026 response deadline and contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. The code's nominal scope (ocarinas — a single wind instrument) bears no relationship to the actual work being procured under it at the state and local level.
