PSC DB10: IT and Telecom - Compute As a Service: Mainframe and Servers — Active Federal SAM.gov Contracts & NAICS Crosswalk

Federal procurement intelligence, spending breakdown, NAICS/NIGP crosswalk, and contract capture guide for PSC DB10 (IT and Telecom - Compute As a Service: Mainframe and Servers).

Product and Service Code (PSC) DB10 — IT and Telecom - Compute As a Service: Mainframe and Servers — 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 $8.1 Billion annually under PSC DB10, with 410+ 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 DB10 specifies the exact cloud / iaas deliverable being purchased on the contract line item (CLIN). In federal solicitation architecture, PSC DB10 is most frequently paired with Primary NAICS 518210 (Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting), which carries an SBA small business size standard of $40.0 Million. Major buying commands—led by Department of Defense (48% of spend), Department of Homeland Security (16%), and Central Intelligence & Civilian Agencies (14%)—use PSC DB10 to categorize statements of work encompassing FedRAMP High & DoD IL4/IL5/IL6 Cloud Compute Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS); Elastic Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) Enclaves & Dedicated Bare-Metal Hosting; and Automated Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS) & Multi-Region Failover. Understanding how contracting officers cross-walk PSC DB10 with NAICS 518210 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 DB10 utilize a mix of open-market SAM.gov solicitations and pre-competed contract vehicles such as GSA MAS 518210C. Depending on the acquisition threshold and market research results from Sources Sought notices, contracting officers frequently restrict PSC DB10 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 DB10 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 DB10 maps directly to NIGP Commodity/Service Code 920-05 (Cloud Computing, Application Hosting, and SaaS 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 DB10 alongside matching state and local NIGP 920-05 bids, enabling capture teams to uncover hidden opportunities and generate compliant proposals faster.
