Delivery Order #47QSSC26F8FCS

Delivery Order for Pressure-Sensitive Duct Tape to National Industries for the Blind

This award is a delivery order under an existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a prominent organization that provides employment opportunities and products made by individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract involves the procurement of pressure-sensitive, vapor-proof plastic-coated cloth duct tape, specifically aluminum or silver-gray in color with defined thickness and adhesion standards. This delivery order supports the broader IDIQ contract aimed at supplying various products and services directly to military and civilian federal customers. The significance of this contract lies in its support of both federal procurement needs and the mission of NIB to promote workforce inclusion for the visually impaired. The work entails delivering high-quality adhesive duct tape suitable for government requirements within a short, defined timeframe. The delivery order was awarded on a sole-source basis under the original $800 million IDIQ contract, which was justified by the specialized capabilities of NIB and limited competition. The short performance period reflects the specific and urgent nature of this supply need, fitting within the established overarching contract terms initiated in 2021 by the General Services Administration.
