PSC H114 — QUALITY CONTROL- GUIDED MISSILES
Product Service Code (PSC) H114 is a federal procurement classification code used to categorize government purchases of quality control- guided missiles. It falls under the Service category and accounts for $549,891 in total federal contract obligations. Every federal contract action includes a PSC code, making this classification essential for tracking what the government buys and identifying opportunities in this market segment.
What Does PSC H114 Cover?
PSC H114 (QUALITY CONTROL- GUIDED MISSILES) is assigned to contract actions where the primary deliverable involves quality control- guided missiles. Contracting officers assign this code when creating or modifying contract actions in the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), and it flows through to USASpending.gov where it becomes part of the public record of federal procurement activity.
Service codes represent work performed by contractors on behalf of the federal government. These range from professional consulting and IT services to facilities maintenance and logistics support. Service contracts typically require detailed statements of work (SOW) or performance work statements (PWS), and are often awarded using best-value tradeoff or lowest-price technically acceptable (LPTA) evaluation criteria.
Understanding Service Code H114
The first character of a PSC code indicates its broad category. Codes beginning with letters A through Z generally represent services and R&D, while codes beginning with numbers (1-9) represent products and supplies. PSC H114 begins with "H," placing it in the service classification.
Federal agencies use PSC codes alongside NAICS codes to classify procurements. While NAICS codes describe the contractor's industry, PSC codes describe the product or service being purchased. A contractor with a single NAICS code may deliver goods or services across many different PSC codes. Understanding both classification systems is essential for identifying relevant contract opportunities and analyzing your competitive landscape.

You can also analyze historical awards on USASpending.gov to understand buying patterns, typical contract sizes, and which agencies are the largest purchasers.
