MERORANDUM # 145
MEMORANDUM TO: All Contracting Agencies of the Federal
Government and the District of Columbia
FROM: Paula V. Smith 
Administrator
SUBJECT: Publication of the Second Edition of the Service
Contract Act Directory of Occupations
In April 1985, the first edition of the Service Contract Act
Directory of Occupations (the Directory) was issued. Since that
time, the Directory has been viewed by procurement staff as a key
time-saver in developing Service Contract Act wage determina-
tions. In response to requests to expand the Directory with
additional occupations and to make the Directory available
through a central distribution point, a second edition is being
published, which contains standard job titles and definitions for
262 occupations, 81 more than the number included in the initial
version of the Directory.
The second edition of the Directory will be available for sale by
the Superintendent of Documents and may be ordered by calling
(202) 783-3238 or writing to Superintendent of Documents, U.S.
Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402.
In purchasing the Directory, Federal and District of Columbia
government agencies can realize a cost savings by riding the
Department of Labor's printing requisition. If you wish to take
advantage of this opportunity, your printing office should submit
a Form SF-1 to the Government Printing Office and reference Labor
Requisition No. 6-00300G9F no later than October 17, 1986.
Inquiries regarding the SCA Directory second edition may be made
by telephone to Dr. Alan Moss at FTS 523-7531. Also, Dr. Moss
should be informed of any Directory problems, additions, or
suggestions for change. Send such information to his attention
