PSC 5660

Overview

The Product and Service Code (PSC) system standardizes how the U.S. federal government classifies what is bought so contract actions can be tracked, analyzed, and reported across FPDS and related acquisition systems; the PSC Manual maintained on Acquisition.gov governs these codes and their use. ¹

PSC 5660 is a product code in Group 56 (Construction and Building Materials) defined as “Fencing, Fences, Gates and Components.” Agencies use it to record contract actions where the predominant item purchased is fencing, gates, or associated components. The current PSC Manual does not list specific inclusions or exclusions beyond the descriptor for this code. ¹

What this PSC covers

• Fencing products purchased as supplies (product code). ¹
• Fences as complete supply items. ¹
• Gates acquired as products. ¹
• Components associated with fencing and gates. ¹
• Placement within Group 56: Construction and Building Materials. ¹
• Detailed inclusions/exclusions: Not specified by official sources. ³

DoD coordinated acquisition assignment

For Department of Defense coordinated acquisition, the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support (formerly DSCP) is assigned purchasing responsibility for items in class 5660 under PGI 208.7006’s coordinated acquisition assignments list. This identifies the managing buying activity for DoD requirements in this PSC. ²

Environmental and sustainability reporting

When reporting contract actions in FPDS, agencies select a single PSC for “what was bought” and may also report environmental attributes in data element 8L (e.g., energy efficient, biobased, environmentally preferable). These environmental flags can accompany product buys coded under 5660 when applicable to the predominant item. ¹

Frequently asked questions

• What does PSC 5660 encompass?
  PSC 5660 is defined as “Fencing, Fences, Gates and Components,” a Group 56 product classification. The current PSC Manual provides the descriptor but does not specify detailed inclusions or exclusions for this class. ¹

• Is installation work coded under PSC 5660?
  PSC codes capture the predominant product or service. If the buy is primarily supplies (fencing, gates, components), use 5660; if installation or construction services predominate, select the appropriate service PSC from Section C per the PSC Manual’s predominant-item rule. ¹

• Who manages DoD purchasing responsibility for PSC 5660 items?
  Under DFARS PGI coordinated acquisition assignments, DLA Troop Support (DSCP) is listed for class 5660. This indicates the DoD activity assigned to manage procurement for this supply class. ²

• Are there official environmental reporting requirements tied to PSC 5660?
  Yes. FPDS data element 8L enables agencies to record environmental attributes (e.g., energy efficient, biobased) for product purchases, including those coded under 5660, when applicable to the predominant item purchased. ¹

• Is there an official NAICS crosswalk for PSC 5660?
  Not specified by official sources. The PSC Manual governs PSC usage but does not provide an authoritative PSC-to-NAICS mapping for class 5660. ³
