PSC 7330

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) system standardizes how the U.S. government classifies what it buys so contract actions can be tracked, analyzed, and reported consistently. PSCs are entered on award records in FPDS and are maintained through the PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov, which provides authoritative definitions and coding guidance. ¹

PSC 7330 covers “Kitchen Hand Tools and Utensils.” The April 2025 PSC Manual specifies that this class includes nonpowered kitchen smallwares such as pots, pans, can openers, graters, food mashers, cleavers, and vacuum bottles/jugs, and excludes utensils with built-in heating units as well as knives, forks, and spoons (which are coded elsewhere). ¹

DoD sourcing considerations

For Department of Defense procurements, the Berry Amendment (10 U.S.C. 4862) as implemented at DFARS 225.7002-1 restricts acquisition of “hand or measuring tools” to U.S.-produced items unless an exception applies. Applicability is based on the item, and each item should be analyzed rather than relying solely on a PSC. ³

FPDS reporting notes

The PSC entered in FPDS should represent the predominant product being acquired; environmental attributes (data element 8L) are reported separately where applicable. The PSC Manual provides this FPDS coding guidance; DFARS PGI also directs choosing the PSC that best represents the predominant amount of supplies or services for reporting. ¹

Frequently asked questions

• What items belong in PSC 7330 versus PSC 7340? PSC 7330 includes nonpowered kitchen smallwares like pots, pans, can openers, graters, mashers, cleavers, and vacuum bottles/jugs. Knives, forks, and spoons are excluded from 7330 and are coded under 7340. See also on G2X: https://app.g2xchange.com/psc/7340. ¹

• How are heated utensils coded? Utensils with integral heating elements are excluded from PSC 7330. Depending on the item, such equipment is classified under kitchen equipment categories like 7310 or 7320 per the PSC Manual descriptions. See also on G2X: https://app.g2xchange.com/psc/7320. ¹

• Are PSCs used in both FPDS and SAM.gov? PSCs are entered on FPDS award records to describe what was bought. SAM.gov provides product and service classification resources (including the PSC Manual) that agencies and entities use during acquisition processes. ⁴

• Does the Berry Amendment always apply to PSC 7330 purchases? DFARS 225.7002-1 restricts DoD acquisition of “hand or measuring tools” to U.S.-produced items unless an exception applies, but applicability is determined at the item level, not solely by PSC. Review DFARS 225.7002-2 for exceptions. ³

• Is there an official NAICS crosswalk for PSC 7330? Not specified by official sources. ²
