PSC Q507

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) is a government-wide taxonomy used to classify goods and services in federal procurement records. PSCs enable consistent reporting across systems such as FPDS and SAM, and are maintained and published in the Product and Service Code Manual on Acquisition.gov. PSC Q507 is listed in the official PSC Manual under the MEDICAL — GYNECOLOGY descriptor; the manual supplies the code and short descriptor used for award reporting, while transaction-level scope, inclusions, and exclusions are determined by contracting officers and award documentation rather than the manual itself.¹

Related NAICS and PSC codes

The PSC Manual lists PSC values and descriptors but does not prescribe a single NAICS mapping for PSC Q507; agencies and contracting officers select the NAICS code that best represents the principal nature of the supplier’s activity for each award. Not specified by official sources for a one-to-one mapping.¹

Contracting considerations

• PSC selection and reporting: FPDS requires reporting of a valid PSC that best identifies the product or service procured; the PSC Manual supplies the valid code list, while transaction-level assignment follows FPDS reporting guidance and contracting officer judgment.²
• Use in solicitations and awards: Agencies commonly cite PSC Q507 in solicitations and awards for OB/GYN physician services and related clinical contracts, but specific scope, performance work statements, and NAICS selections determine procurement detail and applicability; the manual itself does not specify exhaustive inclusions or exclusions.¹

Frequently asked questions

• Q: Where is PSC Q507 defined officially?
  A: PSC codes and short descriptors are published in the Product and Service Code Manual on Acquisition.gov; the manual lists PSC Q507 with the MEDICAL — GYNECOLOGY descriptor and should be the primary authoritative listing for the code. Refer to the manual for the official code text and descriptor.¹

• Q: Which system enforces PSC reporting for awards?
  A: FPDS‑NG is the federal system that collects and stores PSC values for awarded actions; it requires a valid PSC from the manual as a mandatory award data element and enforces reporting through its data submission and validation processes.²

• Q: Is a NAICS code mandated alongside PSC Q507?
  A: Yes — NAICS and PSC reporting are distinct but both are standard award data elements. The PSC Manual does not mandate a single NAICS for PSC Q507; agencies choose the NAICS that best reflects the principal nature of the contractor’s activity for the award.¹

• Q: How granular is the PSC descriptor for contracting and reporting?
  A: PSCs are four-character codes with brief descriptors intended primarily for classification and reporting; the manual lists those short descriptors but does not provide exhaustive lists of included or excluded services — contracting documents and officer determinations provide operational granularity.¹
