PSC J047

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) system standardizes how the U.S. federal government classifies goods and services in procurement records, enabling consistent reporting, spend analysis, and category management across FPDS and related acquisition systems. The PSC list and guidance are maintained via the PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov, which explains PSC grouping, selection principles, and change processes. PSC J047 is the service-category entry for “Maintenance, Repair, and Rebuilding of Equipment- Pipe, Tubing, Hose, and Fittings.” Agencies report actions to J047 when the predominant contract work is maintenance, repair, or rebuilding of pipe, tubing, hose, or related fittings; separate PSCs handle installation, modification, leasing, and product procurement in the same equipment family. ¹

What this PSC covers

• Maintenance of pipe, tubing, hose, and fittings, when maintenance is the primary requirement. ¹
• Repair of pipe, tubing, hose, and fittings, including corrective and preventative repair work where repair is predominant. ¹
• Rebuilding or refurbishment of assemblies and fittings—major overhauls and rebuild actions when these are the principal contract effort. ¹
• Component-level work on hose assemblies, connectors, and seals may be included if the work is maintenance/repair/rebuild in nature; the Manual does not define every component-level boundary. Not specified by official sources ¹.
• Excludes installation actions; use PSC N047 for predominant installation efforts. ¹

How coding is applied in FPDS

Agencies record the PSC in FPDS data element 8A and should select the PSC that represents the predominant work or item for the contract action. When a single contract action includes multiple products or services, FPDS guidance and the PSC Manual direct agencies to report the code that best represents the primary purpose of the action. The Manual also documents grouping rules and examples to assist consistent selection across agencies. ¹

Frequently asked questions

• Q: When is J047 used instead of an installation code?
  A: Use PSC J047 when the primary requirement is maintenance, repair, or rebuilding of pipe, tubing, hose, or fittings. If installation is the predominant effort, record PSC N047 instead. ¹

• Q: Does J047 cover both field repairs and depot-level rebuilds?
  A: The PSC title covers maintenance, repair, and rebuilding broadly, but the Manual does not differentiate field versus depot-level repair in the PSC text; contract-level statements of work and agency logistics policy should define level-of-repair. Not specified by official sources ¹.

• Q: Are spare parts and new pipe purchases coded to J047?
  A: No. New product purchases should be reported to the appropriate product PSC (for example, PSC 4710 for pipe/tube). J047 is a service PSC intended for maintenance/repair/rebuild activities. ¹

• Q: Where can I find authoritative PSC definitions and change history?
  A: The PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov is the authoritative resource for PSC definitions, groupings, and code activation or end-dating; agencies should consult the Manual for current guidance and change logs. ¹
