UNSPSC 60131408 Jing, a Commodity code, encompasses band and orchestral instruments that state and local school districts purchase for music education programs. Recent solicitations show school districts acquiring a wide range of woodwind, brass, string, and percussion instruments in student, intermediate, and professional grades from manufacturers including Yamaha, Selmer, Jupiter, and Pearl. The purchasing pattern reflects ongoing replenishment of music program inventories, with districts sourcing instruments on as-needed bases throughout contract periods and reserving the right to award to single or multiple vendors based on lowest responsive bids for each item or item group. Issuing bodies are overwhelmingly 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—with no recent activity from county governments, cities, or transit authorities. The code shows consistent activity across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, with Georgia and Virginia appearing as active jurisdictions in the most recent quarter.
