PSC N032

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) system is the federal taxonomy used to classify products and services in procurement records for consistent reporting, tracking, and spend analysis across FPDS and SAM. The Product and Service Code Manual on Acquisition.gov is the authoritative source for PSC descriptors, assignments, and usage guidance. ¹

PSC N032 — INSTALLATION OF EQUIPMENT- WOODWORKING MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT — designates installation services specifically for woodworking machinery and related equipment. The PSC list provides the descriptor but does not itemize a detailed breakdown of installation tasks, technical procedures, or subservice categories on the descriptor page. ¹

Frequently asked questions

• Q: What exactly does N032 cover on a contract award?
  A: N032 is the PSC label for “Installation Of Equipment- Woodworking Machinery And Equipment” as listed in the PSC Manual. The manual provides the descriptor but does not list detailed installation tasks or deliverables; those are defined in solicitation documents and SOWs. ¹

• Q: Is there an official NAICS crosswalk for N032?
  A: The PSC Manual lists PSCs and their descriptors; it does not publish a prescriptive NAICS crosswalk for each PSC. Agencies and award filers select NAICS codes that best describe the supply/Service being procured. Not specified by official sources. ¹

• Q: Can N032 be used for maintenance or repair work on woodworking equipment?
  A: N032 identifies installation services. Maintenance and repair activities are assigned separate PSC families (for example, J-series maintenance/repair codes), which the PSC Manual lists separately. Contracting officers should select the PSC that best matches the service performed. ¹
