Delivery Order #47QSSC26F8HCJ

Delivery Order to National Industries for the Blind for Pot Holders

This award is a delivery order contract issued under a larger single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA) with National Industries for the Blind (NIB) as the recipient. NIB is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, primarily through supplying products and services to federal agencies. The current contract involves procuring specific pot holders, sized approximately 8.5 by 11.5 inches, made from terry cloth material, either round or square in shape. This delivery order is of modest scale and illustrates the continuing support that federal agencies are providing to encourage social impact procurement, promoting employment for disabled individuals while meeting agency needs. Work under this contract is limited to producing and delivering these specified pot holders. The award was made on a sole-source basis in alignment with the overarching IDIQ contract that consolidates purchases to NIB due to their unique role. The period of performance for this delivery order is short-term, spanning about one week. This action builds upon the existing substantial IDIQ contract, initially awarded in 2021 with a significant multi-year scope and a total estimated value near $800 million, which underscores a stable, ongoing partnership between GSA and NIB for direct delivery services to federal customers.
