Material Management Service Center

MMSC highly recommends customers place orders using the CFPDC mailbox at cfpdc@usda.gov. Please provide your customer ID number, complete mailing address, telephone number and the items needed. The average order sent to the mailbox is processed the same day and in most cases within hours. We look forward to continuing our efforts of providing excellent customer service to our USDA customers.

The Material Management Service Center (MMSC), a Division within the Office of Operations (OO), provides quality supply and property management services to USDA and other government agencies and/or organizations.

The MMSC exercises its mission by providing support to USDA and other agencies by managing the Consolidated Forms & Publications Distribution Center which provides inventory control, storage and distribution of forms, publications and supplies for participating federal agencies and activities by mutual agreement. In addition, MMSC manages the Centralized Excess Property Operation (CEPO) which is a disposal unit for excess/surplus personal property released by the USDA agencies, staff offices, and division in the Washington Metropolitan Area. In addition to providing personal property disposal services, CEPO provides recycling services through the re-issuance/ transfer of as-is furniture, used office equipment and the sale of Rehab Furniture to USDA agencies. We also sell surplus personal property to the general public via various types of sales.
