PSC R707

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) system is the U.S. federal government’s standardized taxonomy for categorizing goods and services acquired through public procurement. PSCs appear in FPDS/SAM records to indicate “what” was purchased, support spending analysis and reporting, and are governed and published via the Product and Service Code Manual on Acquisition.gov. ¹

The PSC entry for R707 lives in Category R7 (Support‑Management) and is titled “Support‑Management: Contract/Procurement/Acquisition Support.” The manual records the code, its title, and category placement for FPDS reporting but does not provide a granular, itemized “Includes/Excludes” list for R707. ¹
