This award is a delivery order contract issued under a significant indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) vehicle previously established by the General Services Administration (GSA) to National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB is an organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, supporting federal procurement needs while promoting inclusive employment. This specific delivery order procures compartmented paper mess trays, designed according to established government specifications, with each unit packaged in boxes containing multiple trays intended for efficient use and distribution. The contract serves a vital role by ensuring the availability of standardized, durable food service products for government facilities, reinforcing supply chain reliability. The scope includes delivering these trays in tan or sand color, meeting precise packaging and unit size requirements. Awarded on a sole-source basis under the parent IDIQ contract, this delivery order continues the longstanding relationship between the agency and NIB, emphasizing the social impact alongside procurement efficiency. The period of performance for this order is short-term and focused on timely fulfillment at the designated location in Alexandria, Virginia. This award builds on the substantial $800 million IDIQ contract awarded previously to the same recipient, guaranteeing a steady supply of essential items while advancing social goals.
