PSC L037

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) system standardizes how the U.S. federal government classifies products and services for procurement, enabling consistent entry in FPDS, agency-level reporting, and governmentwide spend analysis. The PSC Manual is the governing list and maintenance process for those codes and provides the official code labels used in award reporting. The PSC L037 is listed in the PSC Manual as "Technical Representative- Agricultural Machinery And Equipment" and is intended to classify procurements where the predominant requirement is technical-representative services associated with agricultural machinery and equipment; the Manual supplies the descriptor but does not prescribe a detailed task list for the code. ¹

How this PSC is used in contract reporting

PSC entries (FPDS data element 8A) identify the predominant product or service procured on an award; agencies must select the code that best represents the primary acquisition and enter it in FPDS reporting. The PSC Manual supplies the active code list used by FPDS reporting and the FPDS data-element guidance explains how to identify the predominant code for multi-line acquisitions. Use the PSC that represents the majority of contract value or the principal purpose of the award when reporting. ²

Frequently asked questions
