Awarded on a sole-source basis due to the specialized nature of NIB's mission and capabilities, this delivery order reinforces sustainable procurement practices while supporting inclusion in the workforce. The performance period for this order is a short-term, one-week timeframe, reflecting a specific and immediate procurement need. The parent IDIQ contract and this delivery order together underscore the government's commitment to sourcing from socially responsible vendors with proven expertise in delivering quality products.
