current contractors for the commodity.
    3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the commodity to the Government.

accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46-
48c) in connection with the commodity proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.
