PSC D310: IT and Telecom - Cyber Security and Data Backup — Active Federal SAM.gov Contracts & NAICS Crosswalk
Federal procurement intelligence, spending breakdown, NAICS/NIGP crosswalk, and contract capture guide for PSC D310 (IT and Telecom - Cyber Security and Data Backup).
Product and Service Code (PSC) D310 — IT and Telecom - Cyber Security and Data Backup — is an official federal procurement classification within Portfolio D — IT and Telecommunications Services 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 $5.8 Billion annually under PSC D310, with 460+ 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 D310 specifies the exact service (legacy d3) deliverable being purchased on the contract line item (CLIN). In federal solicitation architecture, PSC D310 is most frequently paired with Primary NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), which carries an SBA small business size standard of $34.0 Million. Major buying commands—led by Department of Defense (48% of spend), Department of Homeland Security (21%), and Department of Justice (11%)—use PSC D310 to categorize statements of work encompassing Continuous Monitoring, Incident Response & Threat Intelligence Operations; RMF Authorization to Operate (ATO) Package Preparation & eMASS/Xacta Administration; and Immutable Air-Gapped Data Backup, COOP Recovery & Ransomware Mitigation. Understanding how contracting officers cross-walk PSC D310 with NAICS 541512 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 D310 utilize a mix of open-market SAM.gov solicitations and pre-competed contract vehicles such as GSA MAS 54151HACS. Depending on the acquisition threshold and market research results from Sources Sought notices, contracting officers frequently restrict PSC D310 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 D310 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 D310 maps directly to NIGP Commodity/Service Code 920-14 (Cybersecurity, Data Security, and Disaster Recovery Services) 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 D310 alongside matching state and local NIGP 920-14 bids, enabling capture teams to uncover hidden opportunities and generate compliant proposals faster.
