PSC J077

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) system is the federal government’s standardized taxonomy for labeling what is procured in contract actions; PSCs are used in FPDS and related systems to classify goods and services for reporting, spend analysis, and category management. The PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov is the authoritative source for PSC definitions, structure, and official usage guidance.¹

PSC J077 is a four‑character PSC formed by combining the J0 service family (maintenance/repair/rebuild of equipment) with supply class 77 (musical instruments/phonograph/home radio). Agencies record PSCs like J077 in FPDS when the procurement is maintenance, repair, or rebuilding services applied to items in supply class 77; FPDS data‑element rules explain how the Product/Service Code element is used in award records.²

Related NAICS and PSC codes

Official crosswalks mapping PSC J077 to specific NAICS or other PSCs are not published as a single, definitive table in the public PSC Manual; contracting officers select the NAICS that best describes the contractor’s primary industry and the PSC that best identifies the product or service for FPDS reporting.¹

How agencies typically report and use J077

Agencies record PSC values in the Product/Service Code element of FPDS award records to indicate what was purchased; when the primary work is maintenance/repair/rebuild applied to supply‑class‑77 items, agencies typically select J077 consistent with FPDS data‑element rules and the PSC Manual guidance on selecting the code that represents most of the contract value.²

Frequently asked questions

• Q: Where do PSCs like J077 appear in federal data?
  A: PSCs are recorded in the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) as the Product/Service Code element for each award; these entries are drawn from the PSC Manual and used for reporting and spend analysis.²

• Q: Is there a single NAICS that maps to PSC J077?
  A: The PSC Manual and FPDS do not publish a single mandatory NAICS for every PSC; contracting officers assign the NAICS that best represents the supplier’s industry or the primary work, so no single, universal NAICS is specified for J077.¹

• Q: How should a contracting officer choose J077 for an action?
  A: Choose the PSC that most closely identifies the primary product or service procured; for maintenance/repair/rebuild work on musical‑instrument/phonograph/home‑radio class items, the J‑family maintenance code combined with the 77 supply class (J077) is used per FPDS and the PSC Manual selection guidance.²

• Q: How can awards using J077 be found?
  A: Use FPDS‑NG ezSearch or other FPDS reporting tools to filter awards by Product/Service Code = J077; FPDS stores PSCs in the product/service code element of each award record.²
