This award represents a delivery order contract issued under the umbrella of a significant single-award IDIQ contract held by National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB, an organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, is the recipient of this contract designed to procure type II-alkaline manganese dioxide batteries. Specifically, the order covers consumer size 'C' nominal 1.5-volt batteries packaged in sets of four, with strict age and expiration requirements to ensure quality and reliability. The contract's scope is focused on direct delivery of these non-rechargeable batteries to federal clients, emphasizing efficient supply chain support for government operations. This delivery order is part of a broader substantial contract with the General Services Administration (GSA), originally awarded on a sole-source basis due to the unique mission of NIB and limited competition in this service area. The order's performance period is a short-term, focused window reflecting timely fulfillment needs. This award highlights the government's continued commitment to supporting organizations that empower disabled individuals while meeting critical federal material requirements.
