The mandatory source requirement of the AbilityOne Program as outlined by the Javits-Wagner-O’Day (JWOD) Act (41 U.S.C. 46 – 48c) must be adhered to by all schedule holders. Certain commercial products are considered “essentially the same” (ETS) as AbilityOne products.

These organizations facilitate the distribution of government orders of Procurement List products and services among nonprofit agencies employing people who are blind or have significant disabilities. They also perform other functions that assist nonprofit agencies that participate in the AbilityOne Program. Also, do checkout the full range of Backup and Recovery Softwares at shopsaitech.com
NIB and SourceAmerica work closely with contracting activities and nonprofit agencies to match government requirements with nonprofit agency capabilities. One key NIB and SourceAmerica activity is visiting government contracting activities to jointly explore with government personnel which products and services may be suitable for the provision by local nonprofit agencies.
At least 75 percent of an agency’s total direct labor hours must be performed by people who are blind or who have a significant disability. The work on Federal contracts may be facility-based, such as the contract to manufacture the U.S. Army Battle Dress Uniform, or community-based, such as a call center service contract with the Environmental Protection Agency that was established to assist consumers with questions about the harmful effects of lead.
To participate in the AbilityOne Program, nonprofit agencies must become certified by either NIB or SourceAmerica. There is no charge to join.
NIB-associated agencies are nonprofits that provide people who are blind with employment and rehabilitative services such as early childhood intervention, adult literacy, low vision examinations and aids, Braille literacy, nutritional/health services, occupational/physical therapy, personal and career counseling, recreation, transportation, mobility, daily living skills, employment training and more. For more information about NIB and how to become a NIB-associated agency, go to NIB (www.nib.org) for more information.
