SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Additions
On February 8, 2019 (84 FR 2823), the Committee for Purchase From
People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled, operating as the U.S.
AbilityOne Commission (Commission) published notice of its intent to
add the Airborne Tactical Assault Panel (A-TAP) to the Procurement List
for 50% of the U.S. Army's A-TAP requirement. In accordance with 41 CFR
51-2.4 and 51-5.3, the Commission subsequently determined 50% of the
U.S. Army's A-TAP requirement was suitable for addition and published a
notice of product addition on March 29, 2019 (84 FR 11935). However,
the March 29, 2019 notice inadvertently omitted that only 50% of the
U.S. Army's ATAP requirement was suitable for addition. The Commission
issued a correction to the 2019 Federal Register notice on February 7,
2023 (88 FR 7967).
Shortly following the Commission's issued correction, the U.S.
Court of Federal Claims, by decision issued March 13, 2023, enjoined
the Commission to update the status of Southeastern Kentucky
Rehabilitation Services, Inc. (SEKRI) on the Procurement List to
reflect that SEKRI is the mandatory source of supply for 100% of the
requirement. SEKRI, Inc. v. U.S., 2023 WL 2473533 *19 (Fed.Cl. 2023).
The Commission herein amends and updates the Procurement List.
Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification
I certify that the following action did not have a significant
impact on a substantial number of small entities. The major factors
considered for this certification were:
1. The action did not result in any additional reporting,
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other
than the nonprofit agencies furnishing the products to the Government.
2. The action did result in authorizing nonprofit agencies to
furnish the products to the Government.
3. There were no known regulatory alternatives which would have
accomplished the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C.
8501-8506) in connection with the products added to the Procurement
List.
End of Certification
Accordingly, the following is an update for the products listed
below:
Product(s)
NSN(s)--Product Name(s): 8465-01-F05-2045--Airborne Tactical Assault
Panel (A-TAP)
