Additions

    On 1/14/2011 (76 FR 2673-2674), the Committee for Purchase From 
People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notices of proposed 
additions to the Procurement List.
    Comments were received from the incumbent contractor opposing 
adding these services to the Procurement List (PL). The contractor 
commented that the addition of these services to the PL would result in 
severe adverse impact to his company. The contractor also questioned 
whether the particular services identified in this requirement would be 
suitable or appropriate for a nonprofit agency employing individuals 
who are blind or severely disabled and whether such a nonprofit would 
be capable of performing the services.
    The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely 
Disabled (Committee) administers the AbilityOne[reg] program under the 
authority of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act. Committee responsibilities 
include identifying products and services produced or provided by 
qualified nonprofit agencies employing people who are blind or severely 
disabled that the Committee determines are suitable for procurement by 
the Government. Prior to adding any project to the PL, the Committee 
reviews each project for suitability, employment potential, nonprofit 
agency qualifications and level of impact on the current contractor.
    The Committee reviews financial information provided by current 
contractors to determine whether severe adverse impact will occur if a 
project is added to the PL. The Committee did so in this instance and 
disagrees with the contractor's assertion that the addition of this 
project to the PL will result in severe adverse impact to the 
contractor company. The Committee also reviewed the specific 
requirements of this project and determined that this project is 
suitable for performance by a nonprofit agency employing people who are 
blind or severely disabled. Placing this project on the PL will result 
in employment and training opportunities for people with severe 
disabilities.
    Accordingly, following a deliberative review of the facts of this 
project, the Committee determines that this project is appropriate for 
the AbilityOne Program and will be added to the Procurement List.
    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the services and 
impact of the additions on the current or most recent contractor, the 
Committee has determined that the services listed below are suitable 
for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 
CFR 51-2.4.

than the small organization that will furnish the services to the 
Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the services to the Government.
    3. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would
