Delivery Order for Alkaline Batteries Under NIB's IDIQ Contract

This award is a delivery order placed under a larger, significant indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract with the National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB, a reputable organization dedicated to providing employment for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, is the recipient of this contract. The procurement involves Type II alkaline manganese dioxide batteries, specifically non-rechargeable AA-size units packaged in sets of four, with strict quality standards including expiration dating and manufacturing criteria. This delivery order supports NIB's ongoing role in supplying essential products to federal customers, contributing to the agency's operational readiness and the broader public sector's supply chain needs. The work scope covers precise delivery of these battery products within a defined short-term timeframe, ensuring timely availability. This award follows a sole-source basis justified by the unique expertise and capacity of NIB to fulfill these requirements. The order was recently awarded for a one-week period and will be performed in Alexandria, Virginia. It stems from the larger IDIQ contract awarded to NIB by the General Services Administration, which has a multi-year span and supports a wide range of direct delivery services to military and civilian entities, reinforcing stable and sustained support to the federal government.
