About UNSPSC 60131308
UNSPSC 60131308 Violoncellos is a Commodity code tracking procurement of cellos and related string instruments for music education and therapeutic programs. State and local governments buy violoncellos as part of broader band and orchestra instrument packages, typically sourcing them through school districts and special-purpose agencies purchasing across multiple instrument categories at once. Recent solicitations show cellos bundled with violins, violas, double basses, woodwinds, brass, and percussion as line items within comprehensive music program acquisitions rather than as standalone cello orders. School districts dominate the issuing bodies under this code, with Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Norwalk Public Schools (Connecticut), Forsyth County Schools (Georgia), Wicomico County Public Schools (Maryland), and Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) all active in the past three months. A state health agency—Texas Health and Human Services Commission—has also solicited musical instruments including string instruments to support therapeutic services at a state-operated facility.
Activity clusters in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, with Georgia (Muscogee County, Forsyth County), Connecticut (Norwalk), Virginia (Fairfax County), Maryland (Wicomico County), and Texas each representing recent solicitation activity. Muscogee County School District issued ITB 27-002 in August 2026 for over 600 line items across all instrument families including strings, with sealed bids due September 9, 2026 and contract award anticipated October 19, 2026; the contract runs one year with automatic renewal options through October 2029. Wicomico County Public Schools issued IFB 58000-261 in May 2026 for 85 line items including digital pianos, woodwinds, brass, percussion, and strings with sealed bids due June 5, 2026 and contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 plus two optional one-year renewals.
