There are no known regulatory alternatives which would accomplish the objectives of the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501–8506) in connection with the products and services proposed for addition to the Procurement List.

The first contractor is a small business that produces similar items for the Department of Defense (DoD), and stated its sales to DoD have dropped significantly. This contractor believes that the loss of opportunities for small business will result in a reduced supply base for DoD. The second contractor is a small HUBZone certified concern located in an area with high unemployment. This contractor also manufactures similar products, comprising the majority of its sales, for DoD, and subcontracts/purchases supplies from other small business concerns in the area. The firm stated it has a relationship with a local agency that provides services for people with severe disabilities where the contractor subcontracts some work to the agency and has designed, built and donated machinery to the agency. The contractor indicates that it would pursue this opportunity if available through a competitive procurement. In considering whether to add products or services to the Procurement List, the Committee operates in accordance with applicable statutes and regulations. By regulation, the Committee considers whether the addition is likely to have a severe adverse impact on the current contractor. In this instance, both contractors submitting comments confirm that they are not current contractors, that they only manufacture similar products. The product at issue in this addition is a new product developed with full cooperation of the contracting activity, which demonstrates that the supply base issue was considered. The Committee does not view the loss of the opportunity to bid on new work to constitute severe financial impact, as there is no guarantee that a particular offeror would be successful. Accordingly, it is appropriate that the Committee consider this product for addition to the Procurement List.
