UNSPSC 60131220: Yak

A traditional Korean woodwind instrument which is 400-550mm long and 20-40mm thick. It is blown lengthwise and made of bamboo. There are 3 finger holes. It has one octave.

UNSPSC 60131220 Yak, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this classification. The recent opportunities records show four school district solicitations for musical instruments and band equipment — a scope entirely unrelated to yaks, the animals. Muscogee County School District (Georgia) issued ITB 27-002 in August 2026 requesting bids on over 600 line items spanning woodwinds, brass, strings, percussion, and ancillary items from manufacturers including Yamaha, Selmer, Jupiter, and Pearl, with a one-year contract term from October 20, 2026, through October 19, 2027, and automatic renewal up to three years. Forsyth County Schools (Georgia) posted two near-identical solicitations (B26-09) in July 2026 for band equipment with specific make-and-model requirements and no alternate equipment permitted. Wicomico County Public Schools (Maryland) issued IFB 58000-261 in May 2026 for 85 line items of musical instruments and pianos, running from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals, requiring unit pricing on FOB destination basis and one year of full replacement warranty.

The geographic spread reflects Georgia and Maryland school districts as recent buyers, supplemented by Fairfax County Public Schools and Fairfax County Government (Virginia), which solicited term contracts for discounted musical instruments from MSRP in July 2026. The mismatch between the UNSPSC code (Yak) and the actual solicitation scope signals either a data-entry error in the state and local procurement system or a misclassification when the opportunities were indexed. School districts and counties are the issuing bodies across all four opportunities. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC code for musical instruments and band equipment procurement before pursuing these opportunities, as the current classification appears to be a taxonomy error rather than a signal of active market demand for the commodity the code nominally represents.
