- This Notice DOES NOT constitute a request for a quote, or proposal for the procurement of products or services. This Notice concerns an action which may affect the ability of commercial industry to sell the products listed in this Notice to the Federal Government. The U.S. AbilityOne Commission (operating name of the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled) is an independent agency of the Federal Government.

Products or services which are required to be purchased by the Federal Government under the authority of the AbilityOne® Program are added to the Commission's Procurement List (PL).

Should these items be added to the PL, the contracting agency who will be authorized by the Commission to order the products on behalf of the Federal Government under the authority of the AbilityOne Program® will be the General Services Administration, Fort Worth, TX. Before adding a product to the PL, the Commission considers the potential impact that removal from commercial channels of this product, as well as products determined to be essentially the same (ETS) (41CFR 51-5.3(a), would have on the sales of firms that are currently providing the products listed in this Notice to the Federal Government and the extent to which the potentially affected firms are dependent on the income. Once added to the PL, the products determined to be ETS to the product(s) added to the PL will be blocked from being sold to Federal Government agencies. The products that have been thus far determined to likely be essentially the same are: NSN:9905-00-NIB-0367 ETS Stock Numbers:764-FLAG-PINKGLO; 65603 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0368 ETS Stock Numbers:764-FLAG-ORANGLO; 65602 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0369 ETS Stock Numbers:FLAG-GRNGLO; 65604 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0370 ETS Stock Numbers:764-FLAG-PINK NSN:9905-00-NIB-0371 ETS Stock Numbers:TX10; 6590x NSN:9905-00-NIB-0372 ETS Stock Numbers:764-FLAG-RED; 65901 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0373 ETS Stock Numbers:764-FLAG-YELLOW; TXY373; 65905 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0374 ETS Stock Numbers:764-FLAG-BLUE; 65903 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0375 ETS Stock Numbers:764-FLAG-WHITE; 65901 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0376 ETS Stock Numbers:3LUC8 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0377 ETS Stock Numbers:2321PG-188 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0378 ETS Stock Numbers:3JUX7 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0379 ETS Stock Numbers:2321R-188; 3JUX9 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0380 ETS Stock Numbers:2321Y188_3LTY9 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0384 ETS Stock Numbers:2315Y-188 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0386 ETS Stock Numbers:2315R188_3LUF2 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0387 ETS Stock Numbers:2315O188_3LUF8 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0389 ETS Stock Numbers:4521OG188_8TKK7 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0390 ETS Stock Numbers:4521PG188_9MJU3 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0391 ETS Stock Numbers:4521O188_8WUK3 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0392 ETS Stock Numbers:4521R188; 3JUZ9 NSN:9905-00-NIB-0393 ETS Stock Numbers:764-4521Y The items listed above will potentially be added to the PL for the Broad (B-List) Government Requirement. That is, should any Federal Government agency determine a need for the product, the procurement of the item will be mandatory by that agency through the AbilityOne® Program. If your firm is selling either the item(s) listed above, or the items that have been determined to be ETS, it is important that your firm report the following information to the Committee: 1.Total Company Revenues accrued from all sources for the most recent 12-month time period. When assessing impact on a commercial firm, the Committee takes into account the revenues of the parent, subsidiary, and affiliated corporations. If your company is a parent, subsidiary, or affiliated corporation to another corporation, please identify the other corporation to which the company is related, the nature of the relationship, and the other corporation's total revenue data. Please define the 12-month period reported. 2.Revenues accrued by providing the products listed in this Notice to the Federal Government for the same most recent 12-month period. If reporting on more than one item listed above, please report the revenue per each item, whether the NSNs or ETS items, and identify the item. 3.Identify the contract number that your firm holds to sell the item(s) to the Federal Government, the government agency, and period of performance (contract end date) for the item(s) your firm is reporting on. Identify the specific items per contract. 4.If your firm is selling the product through purchases by Government Purchase Cards (GPC), please identify that and the amount made through GPC purchases. 5.Identify whether or not the deliveries under the contract have been completed. 6.The length of time your firm has been providing these products to the Federal Government. 7.Identify any small business statuses your firm has qualified for, such as 8(a), woman-owned, service disabled veteran-owned, etc. 8.Provide your firm's DUNS number. The number is needed to confirm your company's small business statuses with the Small Business Administration (SBA). 9.Include your firm's mailing address. Do not use post office boxes, as all replies are sent via means that will not be delivered to a post office box. The address should be for the person who has signed the letter containing the information submitted. All information requested above must be included in the response. Responses that do not include the information requested will be determined to be non-responsive and will not be included in the impact analysis. All responses will be held as confidential and will not be released to any outside party. The information prescribed above must reach the Commission no later than July 6, 2016and can be submitted in letter format. If information is not received by the date requested, the Commission will conclude that potentially affected firms have determined that there will be no severe adverse impact should the listed products be added to the PL. Your letter can be returned either by mail to the address on this notice or by fax to (703) 603-0655. You may also provide any other information you deem appropriate. General information concerning the Commission and its authority can be found in Title 41 United States Code, Sections 8501-8506, or Title 41 Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 51.
