    On November 15, 2024, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced they were looking for applicants interested in joining the Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund Advisory Committee. The initial deadline for applications was December 16, 2024, but the NTIA has now extended the deadline to January 15, 2025. People applying cannot seek Innovation Fund grants or be financially tied to any applicants during their time on the committee. However, current Innovation Fund grant holders can apply to join, as long as they don't apply for new grants while serving.

    The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled is removing certain products from its Procurement List. These products, including various sizes of Army undergarments, were supplied by nonprofit agencies that employ people with severe disabilities, including blindness. The deletion decision was based on evaluations indicating these products are no longer suitable for government procurement. The committee assures that this action will not significantly impact small entities and could potentially open opportunities for them.

    Simple Explanation

    The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled is taking some special Army clothes off a list because they think the government doesn’t need them anymore. This might mean some small companies could make new things for the Army instead, but the people who made the clothes before might have to find other jobs.
