PSC X1NC

Overview

Product and Service Codes (PSCs) are the federal government’s standardized four‑character identifiers used to classify products and services in federal contracting records (FPDS/SAM). The PSC Manual on Acquisition.gov is the authoritative list for code titles, groupings, updates, and administration; agencies and vendors use PSCs for reporting, searching contract data, and aligning procurements with statutory and budget categories ¹.

The PSC X1NC is the facility‑based code labeled “Lease/Rental of Pollution Abatement and Control Facilities.” It is placed within the X1 family of lease/rental PSCs and is used to indicate lease or rental actions for pollution‑abatement and control facilities in FPDS reporting. The PSC Manual provides the code title and placement but does not define detailed technical scopes, equipment lists, or specific lease terms for the code beyond the descriptor ¹.

Reporting and selection guidance

• The PSC Manual is the authoritative source for code titles and placement; contracting actions reported to the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) must use a valid PSC value drawn from the Manual (entered in FPDS element 8A) ¹.
• The FPDS glossary and FPDS/GSA guidance describe how to select the PSC that best represents what is procured; when multiple items or services are present, the PSC representing the predominant contract value should be used ².

Frequently asked questions

• Q: Where is X1NC used in federal reporting?
  A: X1NC is used in FPDS/SAM to indicate lease or rental actions for pollution‑abatement and control facilities. The PSC Manual supplies the official code title and placement for reporting purposes ¹.

• Q: Which FPDS data element records the PSC?
  A: The Product or Service Code is recorded in FPDS element 8A (“Product or Service Code”). Selection should follow the PSC Manual and FPDS guidance so the code reflects the predominant acquisition on the contract record ².

• Q: Does X1NC define lease durations or specific equipment?
  A: No. The PSC Manual provides the code descriptor and grouping but does not enumerate lease durations, contract terms, or specific equipment lists for X1NC; those operational details are not specified by official sources ¹.
