PSC E1EE

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) is a federal taxonomy used to classify what the government buys, supporting consistent reporting, analysis, and spend transparency across procurement systems. PSCs are maintained in the PSC Manual and captured on contract actions reported in the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS). ¹
PSC E1EE — PURCHASE OF TANK AUTOMOTIVE FACILITIES — identifies actions where the government acquires ownership of facilities designated as tank automotive (e.g., facilities within the industrial “E” family of structures). It sits in Category E1, “Purchase of Structures and Facilities,” distinguishing it from construction, repair, lease, and operations codes for the same facility type. ²

Frequently asked questions

• What does PSC E1EE represent?

  • PSC E1EE covers contract actions where the government purchases and takes title to a tank automotive facility. It belongs to Category E1, which is reserved for purchases of structures and facilities rather than construction, repair, lease, or operations activities. ²

• How is E1EE different from Y1EE or Z1EE?

  • E1EE is for purchases (title transfer). Y1EE covers construction; Z1EE covers maintenance; and Z2EE covers repair or alteration. Each code aligns to distinct lifecycle activities in the PSC Manual. ²

• Does E1EE include leases or operations of tank automotive facilities?

  • No. Leases should be coded under X1EE, and operations under M1EE. Use E1EE only when the predominant purpose is the government’s purchase of the facility and transfer of title. ²

• Where are the official definitions maintained?

  • The General Services Administration maintains the PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov, which defines categories and individual codes and governs how PSCs are recorded in FPDS and related systems. Current files and documentation are available on the PSC Manual landing page. ¹

• Does the PSC Manual list specific examples of “tank automotive facilities” for E1EE?

  • Not specified by official sources. ¹
