The Director of the Office of Management and Budget must issue guidance for implementing these changes within 180 days of the Act's enactment. The amendments will apply to solicitations issued 15 months after the Act's enactment. A report evaluating agency compliance must be submitted to Congress within 3 years of the Act's enactment.
