Meaning of federal supply classification
The FSC and its indexes have been developed and adopted by the DoD for use in classifying items of supply identified under the Federal Catalog System. The FSC is a Commodity classification designed to serve the functions of supply and is sufficiently comprehensive to permit the classification of all items of personal property. To accomplish this, groups and classes have been established for the universe of commodities, with emphasis on the items known to be in the supply system of the federal Government. The FSC utilizes a four-digit coding structure, the first two digits of which identify the group, and the last two digits of which identify the classes within each group. Code numbers are so assigned as to make it possible to expand the number of groups and classes as that becomes necessary.
