On February 21, 2025 the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled (operating as the U.S. AbilityOne Commission) published an initial notice of proposed additions to the Procurement List.

This product is not available through the Commission's Commercial Distribution Program, and other Federal entities wishing to purchase this product must contact contracting activity directly for information on purchase availability.

One comment was received, objecting to the proposed deletion at this time, because the commenter said that the requirement might be procured again in the future. The commenter recommended that the Commission pause its deletion action for at least a year. However, the Commission's research indicates it is unlikely that the previous requirement will be procured by this customer in the foreseeable future. The Commission maintains that contact center and IT help desk support can be suitable for procurement from nonprofit agencies employing individuals who are blind or have significant disabilities. In this case, however, there is no longer a government requirement for contract support, thus there is no potential to create or sustain employment for contract employees with disabilities. Accordingly, this requirement is appropriate for deletion from the Procurement List.
