Product Service Code (PSC)

Codes that describe what is being bought - the product, service, or R&D.

Product and Service Codes (PSC, sometimes called FSC for products) describe what the government is purchasing, complementing NAICS (which describes the industry). PSCs starting with a letter are services; numeric PSCs are products. They're useful for market research and for filtering opportunities to exactly what you provide.
