About Us
Servmart Guam is operated by Able Industries of the Pacific, an AbilityOne Community Rehabilitation Program dedicated to improving the quality of life for people with severe disabilities through training and employment opportunities created through our partnership with the Federal Government.
Our goal for providing service to units and ships is to provide what you need, where you need it and when you need it.
With procurement and sourcing offices in Alabama and Guam we have access to anything you could possibly need to keep your operations moving smoothly. With our customer pick up offices in Guam, and our cost effective air freight rates, SERVMART GUAM is able to locate and deliver you most of your “mission critical items” anywhere in the Pacific Theater of Operations.
Now called AbilityOne, we are a NISH (National Industries for the Severely Handicapped ) Community Rehabilitation Agency. As an AbilityOne agency we are part of the national nonprofit agency designated by the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind Or Severely Disabled to provide technical assistance to Community Rehabilitation Programs (CRPs) interested in obtaining federal contracts under the Javits-Wagner-O'Day (JWOD) Program.
We believe in equal opportunity for employment for all people. We are committed to providing people with severe disabilities with greater vocational opportunities through innovative training with the AbilityOne Program. We will continue to persevere until individuals with severe disabilities are recognized as a critical component of the workforce on the Island of Guam. We will create a work environment, which will add value to our employees, clients, community and the Federal customers we serve.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
SUBJECT:
Federal Support for the AbilityOne Program
Americans with disabilities make valuable contributions to our country's workforce that help keep our Nation the world's economic leader. Expanding employment opportunities for these individuals will help ensure that our economy is drawing on the talents and creativity of all its citizens and that America remains a place of opportunity for all. Supporting the AbilityOne Program is one good way to achieve this goal.
The AbilityOne Program (formerly the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Program) is a Federal initiative that works with public and private organizations to generate employment opportunities for Americans who are blind or have other disabilities. Nearly 43,000 individuals work in more than 600 community-based nonprofit agencies that serve people with a wide range of disabilities and sell products and services to the Federal Government through the AbilityOne Program.
The AbilityOne Program has taken steps to embrace successful business practices, including e-commerce and performance-based contracting. Strong support from Federal customers is critical to fulfilling this important program's employment mission. Therefore, I encourage you to ensure that your agency's procurement officials acquire products and services provided by the AbilityOne Program, consistent with existing law.
Additional information about the AbilityOne Program may be obtained by contacting the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled or by visiting www.AbilityOne.gov.
