SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Additions

    On August 20, 2026, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled (operating as the U.S. AbilityOne 
Commission) published an initial notice of proposed additions to the 
Procurement List. (91 FR 53850) This final notice is published pursuant 
to 41 U.S.C. 8503(a)(2) and 41 CFR 51-2.3. The Committee has determined 
that the products listed below are suitable for procurement by the 
Federal Government and has added these products to the Procurement 
List. In accordance with 41 CFR 51-5.2, the Committee has authorized 
the qualified nonprofit agencies described with the products as the 
authorized source(s) of supply. Additionally, in accordance with 41 CFR 
51-2.4, the Committee considered relevant information from the 
contracting activity that this product requirement is not applicable to 
other Federal entities and has granted the activity's requested 
preference for purchase or distribution. These products are not 
available through the Commission's Commercial Distribution Program, and 
other Federal entities wishing to purchase this product must contact 
the contracting activity directly for information on purchase 
availability.
    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the product(s) 
and impact of the additions on the current or most recent contractors, 
the Committee has determined that the product(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 additional reporting, 
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities.
    2. The action may result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the product(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) added to the Procurement 
List.

End of Certification

    Accordingly, the following product(s) are added to the Procurement 
List:

Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled (operating as the U.S. AbilityOne 
Commission) published an initial notice of proposed additions to the 
Procurement List. The Committee determined that the services listed 
below are suitable for procurement by the Federal Government and has 
added these services to the Procurement List as a mandatory purchase 
for the contracting activities listed. In accordance with 41 CFR 51-
5.3(b), the mandatory purchase requirement is limited to the 
contracting activities at the locations listed, and in accordance with 
41 CFR 51-5.2, the Committee has authorized nonprofit agencies listed 
as the mandatory source(s) of supply.
    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the service(s)

REGIONAL OFFICE

    On August 4, 2026 (91 FR 50812) the Commission proposed a product 
for PL addition (91 FR 50812). The Commission received one public 
comment with the commenter suggesting the Commission should confirm the 
proposed addition has been evaluated for employment potential for 
individuals who are blind or have a significant disability including 
workplace accommodations, quality and types of employment, and career 
advancement opportunities. The respective central nonprofit agency is 
responsible for identifying opportunities for employment, evaluating 
the qualifications of nonprofit agencies to perform a requirement, and 
distributing orders among qualified nonprofit agencies. See 41 U.S.C. 
8503(c); 41 CFR 51-3.2(b),(f); Commission Policy 51.301 (May 1, 2025). 
After the CNA proposes a product or service for PL addition, the 
Commission reviews the proposal against the suitability criteria at 41 
CFR 51-2.4, which also includes qualifications of the performing 
nonprofit agency and the employment potential of the proposed addition. 
Having determined all of the suitability criteria were satisfied, the 
Commission proposed addition of this product to the PL.

    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 DEPT OF THE AIR 
FORCE, FA5000 673 CONS LGC, JBER, AK, Housekeeping Services--Custodial, 
USAF, Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson AK 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 DEPT OF THE AIR 
FORCE will refer its business elsewhere, this addition must be 
effective on October 1, 2026, ensuring timely execution for a October 
1, 2026 start date. The Committee published an initial notice of 
proposed Procurement List addition in the Federal Register on August 
20, 2026 (91 FR 53850) but did not receive any comments. This addition 
will not create a public hardship and has limited effect on the public 
at large. Rather, this addition 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 enables the Federal customer to continue operations without 
interruption.
Service Type: Department of Commerce Contract Closeout Service
Mandatory For: Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Ave. NW, 
Washington, DC
Authorized Source of Supply: VisionCorps, Lancaster, PA
Contracting Activity: COMMERCE, DEPARTMENT OF, DEPT OF COMMERCE ESO

    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 Department of 
Commerce, Contract Closeout Service, Dept. of Commerce, Washington, DC 
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 Department of Commerce will refer its business 
elsewhere, this addition must be effective on October 4, 2026, ensuring 
timely execution for a October 4, 2026 start date. The Committee 
published an initial notice of proposed Procurement List addition in 
the Federal Register on August 20, 2026 (91 FR 53850) but did not 
receive any comments. This addition will not create a public hardship 
and has limited effect on the public at large. Rather, this addition 
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 enables the 
Federal customer to continue operations without interruption.
