A Korean traditional percussion instrument with three drums 170mm in diameter and 300mm in length crossed with each other and placed on the top of a long wooden pole.

UNSPSC 60131433 Noedo is a Commodity code under which state and local school districts procure musical instruments and accessories for student music programs. Recent solicitations show school districts buying a broad range of student, intermediate, and professional-grade instruments — woodwinds (saxophones, clarinets, oboes, flutes), brass (trumpets, trombones, French horns, tubas, euphoniums), strings (violins, violas, cellos, basses), percussion (timpani, marimbas, xylophones, drums, cymbals), and related equipment including cases, stands, bows, and storage racks — from established manufacturers such as Yamaha, Selmer, Jupiter, and Pearl. School districts are the primary issuing bodies, with purchases typically structured as term contracts or indefinite-quantity agreements running one to three years to support ongoing music education across elementary, middle, and high school levels. Vendors supply instruments on an as-needed basis with pricing quoted per unit, FOB destination, and delivery typically required within 30 to 45 days of purchase order issuance. Bid competitions are competitive and often favor multiple awards based on lowest responsive and responsible bid per item or category.
