PSC M1GZ

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) system is a standardized taxonomy the U.S. federal government uses to classify goods and services procured across agencies. PSCs enable consistent coding in FPDS/SAM, support spend analysis and category management, and are maintained in the Product and Service Code Manual on Acquisition.gov. The PSC entry PSC M1GZ — Operation of Other Warehouse Buildings — appears under Category M1, “Operation of Structures and Facilities.” The manual records the official code and label but does not provide an expanded itemized definition for most individual PSC entries. ¹

Related NAICS and PSC codes

The PSC Manual materials available on Acquisition.gov do not publish an itemized PSC-to-NAICS crosswalk for every PSC entry in prose; authoritative PSC-to-NAICS mapping and downloadable spreadsheets are provided on Acquisition.gov for reference. NAICS selection for a procurement is determined by the nature of the work and recorded separately from the PSC. ¹

FPDS reporting and coding (optional)

Agencies report PSCs in FPDS data element 8A; FPDS guidance describes the data element structure and field names used in system reporting. ³

The PSC Manual instructs that a reported PSC should reflect the predominant product or service purchased and that PSC entries indicate the “WHAT” of each contract action reported in FPDS; examples and policy guidance are in the manual materials and PDF. ²

Frequently asked questions

• What is the official label for PSC M1GZ?
  The official label is “Operation of Other Warehouse Buildings,” as shown for PSC M1GZ in the PSC Manual under Category M1. The manual lists the code and official label but does not expand the entry into a detailed itemized definition. ¹

• How should a contracting action be coded when warehouses are the primary service?
  Select the PSC reported in FPDS data element 8A based on the predominant requirement; the PSC Manual explains that the predominant product or service determines the PSC entry. The manual provides policy guidance but not contract-level examples specific to M1GZ. ²

• Which NAICS code applies to M1GZ work?
  The PSC Manual does not prescribe a single NAICS for PSC M1GZ; NAICS selection depends on the substantive nature of the services being procured and is recorded separately in solicitations and FPDS. Not specified by official sources. ¹

• Are environmental attributes tracked for services coded as M1GZ?
  FPDS supports recording recovered materials/environmental attributes via data element 8L; agencies may report attributes for service acquisitions when applicable per FPDS and PSC Manual guidance. ³
