American Manufacturing and Packaging

American Manufacturing & Packaging (AMP) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation located in Cookeville, Tennessee, mainly concerned with hiring and training the severely disabled in the manufacturing of food products.〔(Ability One Food Services )〕 The company employs over 100 severely disabled people to manufacture and co-pack several private label brands and its own brands - Millstone Traditions and Beachhouse Seafood.〔(AMP Website )〕 On average, their brand portfolio reaches more than four million people around the world daily. AMP is the first non-profit agency in the country to operate a USDA approved (PL No. 47-011-02) facility for the production of manufactured goods sold to the feeding programs of the US Government and private industry. AMP utilizes the manufacture of food items to create opportunities for severely disabled in the development of work skills, vocational services and a better quality of life.〔(Ability One Awards & Recognition )〕
==Background==
(詳細はJavits-Wagner-O'Day Act , a U.S. federal law mandating that all federal agencies purchase specified supplies and services from non-profit organizations employing blind persons or others with severe disabilities,〔(A Brief History of the JWOD Program )〕〔(NISH )〕 named after Senator Jacob K. Javits, who led efforts to expand the Wagner-O'Day Act of 1938.〔(Ronald Reagan: 50th Anniversary of the JWOD Act, 1988 )〕 Senator Javits led the efforts to expand the older law, which applied only to blind persons, and covered supplies but not services. The effort succeeded in spite of objections raised by organizations representing the blind, as expressed for example in Resolution 68-04〔(American Council Of The Blind )〕 passed in 1968 by the American Council of the Blind.
The federal agency charged with administering the program is currently known as the Committee for Purchase from People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled. The agency decides which commodities and services the government should purchase under the JWOD Act. The program it oversees, known for over three decades as the JWOD Program, was renamed "AbilityOne" by Congress in 2006.〔(AbilityOne Website )〕
AMP is the first non-profit agency in the country to operate a USDA-approved facility for the production of manufactured goods sold to the feeding programs of the US Government and private industry. They manufacture over 125 different varieties of dry mixes, dairy blends and oil products for federal customers such as the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Defense. AMP also produces for the private sector and participated in the reinvented federal procurement Prime Vendor program by delivering to full-line food distributors who are contracted to deliver to federal installations.〔(DoD Food Procurement Program )〕
