UNSPSC 60131305: Harps

UNSPSC 60131305 Harps (Commodity) describes musical instruments that state and local governments actually buy under far broader scope than the code name suggests—school districts and other public entities are procuring comprehensive ranges of band and orchestral instruments including woodwinds, brass, strings, percussion, and pianos, along with cases, stands, bows, and storage equipment. State and local buyers under this code are primarily school districts and specialized public facilities including state-supported living centers; issuing bodies span K–12 music education programs, county school systems, and state health agencies providing therapeutic services.
