PSC R710

Overview

The Product Service Code (PSC) framework is a governmentwide taxonomy that classifies products and services procured by the U.S. federal government to standardize reporting, analysis, and spending transparency in systems such as FPDS and SAM. The PSC listing and guidance are maintained through the PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov, which provides the authoritative definitions and inclusion notes used across federal reporting and category mapping.¹

The PSC entry R710 (Support‑Management: Financial) appears under Category R7 (Support‑Management) and is explicitly described as “Support‑Management: Financial” with the single inclusion note “Includes: Credit Card Services.” The Manual does not provide a detailed line‑item scope for R710 beyond that inclusion.¹

How R710 appears in federal procurement reporting

FPDS records show real awards and IDVs using PSC R710 where agencies procure financial‑support services. These FPDS occurrences typically pair R710 with a variety of NAICS assignments depending on the contracting approach and the nature of the deliverable; sample FPDS search results illustrate those use cases and specific award records coded with R710.²

Frequently asked questions

• Q: What is the authoritative source for the R710 definition?
  A: The PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov is the authoritative source for PSC definitions; the R710 entry is listed there as Support‑Management: Financial with the inclusion “Credit Card Services.”¹

• Q: Can R710 be used for general accounting or auditing services?
  A: The PSC Manual assigns accounting and auditing to separate R‑series entries; R710 itself contains only the credit card services inclusion and does not specify broader accounting or auditing coverage.¹

• Q: How do agencies report R710 in FPDS?
  A: Agencies enter the PSC in FPDS data element 8A. FPDS award and IDV records show R710 used for financial‑support actions, often alongside a NAICS code that fits the contracting approach; specific examples are available via FPDS ezSearch results.²

• Q: Is there a published NAICS crosswalk for R710 in the PSC Manual?
  A: The PSC Manual references supporting spreadsheets for governmentwide category alignment and activation dates but does not embed a prescriptive NAICS crosswalk for R710 in the manual text; users should consult the PSC spreadsheets for alignment details.¹
