PSC J023

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) framework is the U.S. federal government’s standardized taxonomy for classifying purchased products and services in procurement reporting systems (FPDS, SAM and related tools). PSCs support consistent identification, tracking, and analysis of federal contracting activity and are maintained through the PSC Manual published on Acquisition.gov.¹

PSC J023 is the PSC entry used to classify contracting actions for maintenance, repair, and rebuild services applied to ground-effect vehicles, motor vehicles, trailers, and cycles. The consolidated PSC table (April 2025) provides the authoritative short-form descriptor used in solicitations and award records; agencies and reporting systems reference that table for the official code label and grouping.²

Contracting notes

• Agencies must identify the appropriate PSC on the contract line item when the line item describes a product or service represented in the PSC Manual; this is a standard element of line-item documentation in federal contracting systems and is reinforced in the DFARS/PGI guidance about line-item content.³

Frequently asked questions

• What is the short official descriptor for PSC J023?
  The consolidated PSC table lists PSC J023 with the short-form descriptor used in solicitations and award records for maintenance/repair/rebuild of ground-effect vehicles, motor vehicles, trailers, and cycles.²

• Where is PSC J023 recorded in federal award data?
  PSC J023 appears on the contract line item or award record in FPDS and related award reporting; search award reports or the agency solicitation/award text to confirm the PSC used on a given action.²

• How does PSC selection affect NAICS reporting and solicitation drafting?
  The PSC classifies the commodity/service for reporting; solicitation drafting also requires the appropriate NAICS code and size standard. Agencies assign NAICS independently for each acquisition and document both the NAICS and PSC on solicitations and awards.¹

• Can PSC J023 be used for both depot-level overhauls and minor shop repairs?
  The PSC descriptor covers maintenance, repair, and rebuild activities across scales, but the contracting statement of work must specify scope (minor repair, overhaul, rebuild) so the procurement and line-item coding match the acquisition’s technical and contract requirements. Not specified in detail by the PSC listing itself.¹

• How do I confirm whether a forthcoming opportunity uses PSC J023?
  Review the solicitation line items and the award notice; the PSC appears on the line item or award record. The PSC Manual and the consolidated PSC table provide the authoritative code and descriptor to verify against the solicitation language.²
