PSC N059

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) framework is a standardized classification system the U.S. federal government uses to label goods and services in procurement records. PSC codes support consistent reporting in FPDS and SAM and are maintained through the PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov, which governs PSC structure and assignment. PSC N059, titled INSTALLATION OF EQUIPMENT- ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT COMPONENTS, is the formal label used to identify installation services for electrical and electronic equipment components in federal procurements; contracting officers apply PSCs on award records to reflect the product or service procured. ¹
