Section 8(aX12) of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 637(aX12)) is
amended to read as follows:
"(12XA) The Administration shall require each concern eligible to
receive subcontracts pursuant to this subsection to annually prepare
and submit to the Administration a capability statement. Such
statement shall briefly describe such concern's various contract
performance capabilities and shall contain the name and telephone
number of the Business Opportunity Specialist assigned such con-
cern. The Administration shall separate such statements by those
primarily dependent upon local contract support and those pri-
marily requiring a national marketing effort. Statements primarily
dependent upon local contract support shall be disseminated to
appropriate buying activities in the marketing area of the concern.
The remaining statements shall be disseminated to the Directors of
Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization for the appropriate
agencies who shall further distribute such statements to buying
activities with such agencies that may purchase the types of items
or services described on the capability statements.
"(B) Contracting activities receiving capability statements shall,
within 60 days after receipt, contact the relevant Business Oppor-
tunity Specialist to indicate the number, type, and approximate
dollar value of contract opportunities that such activities may be
awarding over the succeeding 12-month period and which may be
appropriate to consider for award to those concerns for which it has
received capability statements.
"(C) Each executive agency reporting to the Federal Procurement
Data System contract actions with an aggregate value in excess of
$50,000,000 in fiscal year 1988, or in any succeeding fiscal year, shall
prepare a forecast of expected contract opportunities or classes of
contract opportunities for the next and succeeding fiscal years that
small business concerns, including those owned and controlled by
socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, are capable of
performing. Such forecast shall be periodically revised during such
year. To the extent such information is available, the agency fore-
casts shall specify:
"(i)   The   approximate   number   of   individual   contract
opportunities (and the number of opportunities within a class)
"(ii) The approximate dollar value, or range of dollar values,
for each contract opportunity or class of contract opportunities.
