shall--
            ``(1) notify Federal Prison Industries of the procurement

        contractor under an applicable multiple award contract).
    ``(c) Implementation by Agencies.--The head of each executive 
agency shall ensure that--
            ``(1) the executive agency does not purchase a Federal 
        Prison Industries product or service unless a contracting 
        officer of the executive agency determines that the product or 
        service is comparable to products or services available from 
        the private sector that best meet the executive agency's needs 
        in terms of price, quality, and time of delivery; and
            ``(2) Federal Prison Industries performs its contractual 
        obligations to the executive agency to the same extent as any 
        other contractor for the executive agency.

procedures other than competitive procedures to enter into a contract 
with Federal Prison Industries only under the following circumstances:

        accordance with paragraph (2), within 30 days after Federal 
        Prison Industries has been informed by the head of that 
        executive agency of an opportunity for award of a contract for 
        a product, that--
                    ``(i) Federal Prison Industries cannot reasonably 
                expect fair consideration in the selection of an 
                offeror for award of the contract on a competitive 
                basis; and
                    ``(ii) the award of the contract to Federal Prison 
                Industries for performance at a penal or correctional 
                facility is necessary to maintain work opportunities 
                not otherwise available at the penal or correctional 
                facility that prevent circumstances that could 
                reasonably be expected to significantly endanger the 
                safe and effective administration of such facility.
            ``(B) The product is available only from Federal Prison 
        Industries and the contract may be awarded under the authority 
        of section 2304(c)(1) of title 10, United States Code, or 
        section 303(c)(1) of the Federal Property and Administrative 
        Services Act of 1949 (41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1)), as may be 
        applicable, pursuant to the justification and approval 
        requirements relating to noncompetitive procurements specified 
        by law and the Federal Acquisition Regulation.
            ``(C) The head of the executive agency determines that the 
        product that would otherwise be furnished is to be produced, in 
        whole or in significant part, by prison labor outside the 
        United States.
    ``(2)(A) A determination made by the Attorney General regarding a 
contract pursuant to paragraph (1)(A) shall be--
            ``(i) supported by specific findings by the warden of the 
        penal or correctional institution at which a Federal Prison 
        Industries workshop is scheduled to perform the contract;
            ``(ii) supported by specific findings by Federal Prison 
        Industries regarding the reasons that it does not expect to be 
        selected for award of the contract on a competitive basis; and
            ``(iii) made and reported in the same manner as a 
        determination made pursuant to section 303(c)(7) of the Federal 
        Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (41 U.S.C. 
        253(c)(7)).

the performance of the contract by any means, including means such as--
            ``(A) a provision in a solicitation of offers that requires 
        a contractor to offer to use or specify products or services of 
        Federal Prison Industries in the performance of the contract;
            ``(B) a contract clause that requires the contractor to use

        services) offered by Federal Prison Industries in the 
        performance of the contract; or

                providing communications or water or electrical power 
                distribution;
                    ``(B) pipelines for the distribution of natural 
                gas, bulk petroleum products, or other commodities; or
