SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Committee imposes certain requirements 
on nonprofit agencies that participate in the Javits-Wagner-O'Day 
(JWOD) Program. The requirements being proposed are recordkeeping for 
specific products and services sold under the JWOD Act. This is a 
change in current requirements that only require records be kept and 
reported in the aggregate, rather than by specific JWOD product or 
service. If approved, recordkeeping shall reflect dollar sales of each 
product and service sold under the authority of JWOD Act, direct labor 
hours performed by all workers on each product and service sold under 
the JWOD Act, and files which document the disability and competitive 
employability of each worker counted toward the nonprofit agencies' 
ratio of disabled direct labor. Such records and files are required to 
ensure the effective administration of the JWOD Program and to ensure 
that nonprofit agencies seeking to participate in the Committee's 
program meet the requirements of 41 U.S.C. 46-48(c).

Director, Information Management.
