Legal Status This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily
Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal
Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official
electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal
Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the
corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the
daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial
informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal
Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status.
For complete information about, and access to, our official publications
and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
If the Committee approves the change to the Procurement List, the entities of the Federal Government identified in this notice will be required to procure the service(s) listed below from nonprofit agencies employing persons who are blind or have other severe disabilities.
Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification
I certify that the following action will not have a significant impact on any small entities. The major factors considered for this certification were:
The action did not result in any additional reporting, recordkeeping, or other compliance requirements for small entities other than the nonprofit agencies furnishing the services to the Government.
The action did result in authorizing nonprofit agencies to furnish the products to the Government.
There were no known regulatory alternatives which would have accomplished the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501-8506) in connection with the products added to the Procurement List. ( printed page 7978)
End of Certification
The following is the intended change to the service currently on the Procurement List:
Service(s)
Service Type: Customer Contact Center 2 (CCC2)

The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled (Committee), is announcing that Chimes District of Columbia, Washington, DC and InspiriTec, Inc., Philadelphia, PA were recommended to the Committee to serve as authorized sources for the GSA PBS Region 3, Defense Manpower Data Center (CONUS), Fort Knox, KY. On February 17, 2026, the Committee approved both nonprofit agencies to serve as authorized sources in accordance with 51-5.2(a).
This notice is to operate the CCC2 for the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC), which includes the operation and continuous enhancement of a multi-channel contact center and its associated programs. The Contractor shall provide customer service operations, including Tier 1 and Tier 2 support, and shall provide scalable, secure, and high-quality service delivery that meets the Government's mission needs.
The Contractor shall provide all personnel, operational oversight, and program management necessary to support contact center functions, ensuring compliance with all applicable policies, regulations, and performance standards. The Contractor shall also be responsible for adapting to changing requirements, including potential legislative and policy changes, and supporting new and evolving customer service needs throughout the period of performance. Critically, the Contractor will operate within DMDC's modernized, cloud-native contact center solution on AWS, leveraging AI-powered tools and expanded communication channels to achieve efficiencies and enhanced customer experience. The Contractor will collaborate with DMDC during the transition to ensure a seamless cutover and minimal disruption to customer service.
The Committee has directed SourceAmerica to conduct a Phase II competitive distribution in accordance with 41 CFR 51-3.4(d), Committee Policy 51.301-04, and the parameters outlined in Committee Decision Document ACDD 26-03.
