This award represents a delivery order under an existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a nonprofit organization that provides employment opportunities to individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The delivery order procures Type II alkaline manganese dioxide batteries, specifically consumer size AAA with precise specifications regarding voltage, packaging, and shelf life. This procurement supports the federal agency's operational needs by ensuring a supply of reliable battery products within a defined short-term timeframe. The work scope covers the sourcing and direct delivery of these batteries, enhancing mission readiness. The order is part of a broader multi-year, substantial IDIQ contract awarded solely to NIB, reflecting limited competition in this specialized supply area and promoting social impact through employment of disabled individuals. The delivery is scheduled within a concise performance window. No key subcontractors or solicitations are noted for this order, and it functions under the umbrella of the sizable GSA contract enabling steady direct deliveries to military and civilian customers.
