As prescribed in 15.304(c)(91)(ii), insert the following or a similar provision:
ABILITYONE, ( FORMERLY CALLED JAVITS-WAGNER-O’DAY ACT (“JWOD”)) ENTITY SUPPORT EVALUATION.
(DEC 1997) - DLAD
The “AbilityOne”, ( formerly called Javits-Wagner-O’Day Act (JWOD)) Entity Proposal provided by the offeror under 52.215-9004 will be evaluated on a comparative basis among all offerors. An offeror that proposes or demonstrates a higher percentage, complexity level, and variety of participation by “ABILITYONE” qualified nonprofit agencies for the blind or other severely disabled as subcontractors beyond those items for which “ABILITYONE” entities are the mandatory source generally will receive a higher rating on this factor during the source selection process. Offerors' proposals for such support will be made a part of any resulting contract for use in determining how well the contractor has adhered to its plan. This plan will be monitored by the cognizant Defense Contract Management Agency activity as a means of assisting the contracting officer in determining how well the contractor has in fact performed. This determination will be one factor used in the placement of orders against multiple-award contracts and/or the exercise of options in the contract's follow-on years (as applicable). Performance on prior contracts in subcontracting with and assisting “ABILITYONE” entities will be used as an element of past performance evaluation in subsequent source selection decisions.
