Can contracting activities request that a “one-time requirements” be designated for nonprofit agencies?
Products and services produced under the JWOD Program are generally ones for which a continuing need exists. These projects allow uninterrupted employment for persons who are blind or have other severe disabilities. However, the Committee recognizes that although one-time requirements do not offer long-term stable employment opportunities, they often serve as useful training vehicles. For this reason, the Committee will sometimes, approve “one-time” requirements. A stipulation for such consideration is that the project should generate enough work years (normally at least ten) of direct labor to make the addition worthwhile. Federal personnel should contact the Committee, NIB or NISH to explore the feasibility of adding a particular one-time requirement to the Procurement List.
