PSC 6750

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) is a governmentwide taxonomy the U.S. federal government uses to classify what is being bought, enabling standardized reporting and analytics across procurement systems such as FPDS and SAM. The code set is governed through the PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov and is referenced in FPDS data entry guidance for contract actions. Accurate PSC selection supports market research, spend analysis, and compliance reporting across agencies. ¹

PSC 6750 designates Photographic Supplies. Per the PSC Manual, it covers sensitized photographic paper, special‑purpose photographic chemicals, unprocessed film, and photoflash lamps, while explicitly excluding medical or industrial X‑ray film and electrographic (facsimile) paper. Agencies select 6750 when the predominant spend is for photographic consumables rather than cameras, accessories, or processed film. This PSC is distinct from equipment and processed media codes within Federal Supply Group 67. ²

• Photoflash lamps are expressly included in 6750 even though most lamps/bulbs fall under Electric Lamps 6240. ²
• Processed film (still or motion) belongs under 6770; 6750 covers unprocessed film only. ²

DoD coordinated acquisition note

Within the DoD Coordinated Acquisition Program, Federal Supply Class 6750 Photographic Supplies is assigned to DLA Troop Support (historically “DSCP”) as the acquiring organization for coordinated buys, per PGI 208.7006 tables. This informs where requiring departments route consolidated requirements. ³

Frequently asked questions

• What exactly is included under PSC 6750?
  6750 covers sensitized photographic paper, special photographic chemicals, unprocessed film, and photoflash lamps. It is intended for consumable photographic supplies used in image capture and processing, not cameras, accessories, or processed media. When in doubt, check the PSC Manual includes/excludes. ²

• Are X‑ray films or fax/electrostatic papers part of PSC 6750?
  No. X‑ray film is classified under 6525 (medical) or 6635 (industrial). Electrographic (facsimile) paper is classified under 7530. These items are explicitly excluded from 6750 in the PSC Manual. ²

• How should processed vs. unprocessed film be coded?
  Use 6750 for unprocessed film and 6770 for processed film (still or motion). This distinction turns on whether image development has occurred, not the medium or format. Contracts mixing both should classify by predominant value. ²

• Who manages coordinated acquisition for DoD requirements in PSC 6750?
  DLA Troop Support (formerly DSCP) is designated as the acquiring activity for FSC/PSC 6750 under DFARS PGI coordinated acquisition assignments. Program offices use this assignment to route consolidated DoD procurements for photographic supplies. ³

• Which NAICS codes are officially tied to PSC 6750?
  Not specified by official sources ¹
