FSC/PSC: FEDERAL SUPPLY CODES & PRODUCT SERVICE CODES

Federal Supply Codes (FSC) or Product Service Codes (PSC) are another classification system the Federal Government uses to identify services and products.  These codes are two-digit numeric codes for supplies, or a single alphabetic identifier for services.  These codes are used primarily as a classification system for publishing procurement opportunities through electronic procurement gateways.  FSC/PSC codes can be accessed at:
