PSC 4210: Fire Fighting Equipment — Active Federal SAM.gov Contracts & NAICS Crosswalk

Federal procurement intelligence, spending breakdown, NAICS/NIGP crosswalk, and contract capture guide for PSC 4210 (Fire Fighting Equipment).

Product and Service Code (PSC) 4210 — Fire Fighting Equipment — is an official federal procurement classification within Federal Supply Class 42 — Fire Fighting, Rescue & Safety Equipment managed by the General Services Administration (GSA) under the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) Product and Service Codes Manual. Across federal agencies, contracting officers obligate approximately $1.4 Billion annually under PSC 4210, with 580+ Bids active solicitations, pre-solicitation notices, and task order RFQs circulating on SAM.gov and agency e-Buy portals. While a 6-digit NAICS code defines a contractor's overall industry and Small Business Administration (SBA) size standard, PSC 4210 specifies the exact product (fire fighting) deliverable being purchased on the contract line item (CLIN). In federal solicitation architecture, PSC 4210 is most frequently paired with Primary NAICS 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing), which carries an SBA small business size standard of 550 Employees. Major buying commands—led by Department of Defense (Navy NSWC, DLA Troop Support, Air Force, Army) (66% of spend), Department of Agriculture (U.S. Forest Service) & DOI (18%), and Department of Homeland Security (USCG / FEMA) & GSA (11%)—use PSC 4210 to categorize statements of work encompassing Structural, Shipboard & Wildland Fire Hose, Nozzles, Wyes, Adapters, Monitors & Reels; Portable Wheeled & Hand-Held Fire Extinguishers (Dry Chemical, CO2, Halotron, Clean Agent); and Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF / Fluorine-Free F3), Proportioners & Fixed Suppression Systems. Understanding how contracting officers cross-walk PSC 4210 with NAICS 339999 is critical because many agencies filter dynamic small business searches, GSA e-Buy distributions, and historical FPDS incumbent spend analyses by PSC rather than NAICS alone. Procurement teams issuing awards under PSC 4210 utilize a mix of open-market SAM.gov solicitations and pre-competed contract vehicles such as DLA Troop Support / GSA MAS 339999F. Depending on the acquisition threshold and market research results from Sources Sought notices, contracting officers frequently restrict PSC 4210 competitions to certified small businesses—including 8(a) Business Development participants, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB), and HUBZone firms. Offerors responding to PSC 4210 RFPs must demonstrate strict compliance with applicable FAR and DFARS clauses, deliverable quality standards, and supply-chain or labor regulations. For contractors expanding across both federal and state/local (SLED) markets, PSC 4210 maps directly to NIGP Commodity/Service Code 340-00 (Fire Protection Equipment and Supplies (Turnout Gear, SCBA, Hose, Apparatus Gear)) used by state procurement portals, municipal purchasing departments, public universities, and K-12 school districts. InTandem's automated government contracting platform continuously monitors live SAM.gov notices tagged with PSC 4210 alongside matching state and local NIGP 340-00 bids, enabling capture teams to uncover hidden opportunities and generate compliant proposals faster.
