PSC Y1AA: Construction of Office Buildings — Active Federal SAM.gov Contracts & NAICS Crosswalk

Federal procurement intelligence, spending breakdown, NAICS/NIGP crosswalk, and contract capture guide for PSC Y1AA (Construction of Office Buildings).

Product and Service Code (PSC) Y1AA — Construction of Office Buildings — is an official federal procurement classification within Portfolio Y — Construction of Structures and Facilities 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 $7.8 Billion annually under PSC Y1AA, with 380+ 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 Y1AA specifies the exact construction (new) deliverable being purchased on the contract line item (CLIN). In federal solicitation architecture, PSC Y1AA is most frequently paired with Primary NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), which carries an SBA small business size standard of $45.0 Million. Major buying commands—led by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) (44% of spend), General Services Administration (PBS) (28%), and Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) (18%)—use PSC Y1AA to categorize statements of work encompassing Federal Courthouse, Administrative Headquarters & Base Command Building Construction; Design-Build Structural Steel, Precast Concrete & Blast-Resistant Facades (UFC 4-010-01); and SCIF (ICD 705) Shielded Enclosures, LEED Gold Sustainable MEP Systems & Elevators. Understanding how contracting officers cross-walk PSC Y1AA with NAICS 236220 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 Y1AA utilize a mix of open-market SAM.gov solicitations and pre-competed contract vehicles such as USACE / GSA PBS. Depending on the acquisition threshold and market research results from Sources Sought notices, contracting officers frequently restrict PSC Y1AA 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 Y1AA 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 Y1AA maps directly to NIGP Commodity/Service Code 909-22 (Building Construction, Non-Residential (Office Bldg., Municipal, School, etc.)) 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 Y1AA alongside matching state and local NIGP 909-22 bids, enabling capture teams to uncover hidden opportunities and generate compliant proposals faster.
