SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
On 3/3/2023 the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or
Severely Disabled published notice of proposed additions to the
Procurement List. This notice is published pursuant to 41 U.S.C. 8503
(a)(2) and 41 CFR 51-2.3.
After consideration of the material presented to it concerning
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the product(s)
and service(s) and impact of the additions on the current or most
recent contractors, the Committee has determined that the product(s)
and service(s) listed below are suitable for procurement by the Federal
Government under 41 U.S.C. 8501-8506 and 41 CFR 51-2.4.
Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification
I certify that the following action will not have a significant
impact on a substantial number of small entities. The major factors
considered for this certification were:
1. The action will not result in any additional reporting,
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other
than the small organizations that will furnish the product(s) and
service(s) to the Government.
2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the product(s) and service(s) to the Government.
3. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would
accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C.
8501-8506) in connection with the product(s) and service(s) proposed
for addition to the Procurement List.
End of Certification
Accordingly, the following service(s) are added to the Procurement
List:
Service(s)
Service Type: Warehouse Services
Mandatory for: Naval Air War Center Air Division, Naval Air Systems
Command, Granite City, IL
Designated Source of Supply: Professional Contract Services, Inc.,
Austin, TX
Contracting Activity: DEPT OF THE NAVY, NAVAL AIR WARFARE CENTER AIR
DIV
The Committee finds good cause to dispense with the 30-day delay in
the effective date normally required by the Administrative Procedure
Act. See 5 U.S.C. 553(d). This addition to the Committee's Procurement
List is effectuated because of the expiration of the Naval Air Warfare
Center Air Division, Warehouse Management Services, Granite City, IL
contract. The Federal customer contacted and has worked diligently with
the AbilityOne Program to fulfill this service need under the
AbilityOne Program. To avoid performance disruption, and the
possibility that the Naval Air Warfare Center Air Division will refer
its business elsewhere, this addition must be effective on 5/28/2023,
ensuring timely execution for a 6/1/2023 start date while still
allowing 23 days for comment. The Committee also published a notice of
proposed Procurement List addition in the Federal Register on 3/3/2023
and did not receive any comments from any interested persons. This
addition will not create a public hardship and has limited effect on
the public at large, but, rather, will create new jobs for other
affected parties--people with significant disabilities in the
AbilityOne program who otherwise face challenges locating employment.
Moreover, this addition will enable Federal customer operations to
continue without interruption.
Michael R. Jurkowski,
Acting Director, Business Operations.
