Procurement and Acquisition Policy has
suspended the use of the price
evaluation adjustment for small
disadvantaged businesses (SDBs) in DoD

reevaluated based on the level of DoD
contract awards to SDBs achieved in

SDBs a 10 percent price preference in
certain acquisitions. This price
preference is implemented in Subpart

2006, DoD exceeded this 5 percent goal,

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
Background
Youth with disabilities face
significant challenges both in the school
environment and as they transition to
adult life. National studies and reports
have shown that, compared to their nondisabled peers, students with
disabilities are less likely to receive a
regular high school diploma; drop out
twice as often; and enroll in and
complete postsecondary education
programs at half the rate; and, up to two
years after leaving high school, about 4
in 10 youths with disabilities are
employed as compared to 6 in 10 sameage out-of-school youth in the general
population (National Center for
Education Statistics, 2000; National
Longitudinal Transition Study-2
(NLTS2), 2005). These and other related
findings on the secondary and
postsecondary outcomes of youth with
disabilities have spurred Federal and
State efforts to improve transition
policies and practices.
The transition of youth with
disabilities is a shared responsibility
