SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to the authority granted in 10 U.S.C.
2323(e), DoD has previously granted
SDBs a 10 percent price preference in
certain acquisitions. This price
preference is implemented in Subpart
19.11 of the Federal Acquisition
Regulation. Section 801 of the Strom
Thurmond National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1999
(Pub. L. 105–261) amended 10 U.S.C.
2323(e)(3) to prohibit DoD from granting
such a price preference for a 1-year
period following a fiscal year in which
DoD achieved the 5 percent goal for
contract awards established in 10 U.S.C.
2323(a). Since, in fiscal year 2005, DoD
exceeded this 5 percent goal, use of this
price preference in DoD acquisitions
must be suspended for a 1-year period,
from March 10, 2006, to March 9, 2007.
