This award represents a delivery order contract placed under a larger indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract with National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB is a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating employment opportunities for people who are blind or visually impaired, often fulfilling government contracts that promote social impact. The contracted product consists of non-rechargeable Type II alkaline manganese dioxide batteries, specifically AAA size with a nominal voltage of 1.5 volts, supplied in packages of four units. Strict specifications include a maximum age upon delivery and a minimum expiration period to ensure reliability and quality. This order is significant as it supports essential supply needs within the federal government, potentially for various applications requiring reliable power sources, demonstrating collaboration between social enterprise and government procurement. The work scope includes prompt delivery within a short period to Alexandria, Virginia, adhering to detailed product requirements. The delivery order is awarded as part of the previously established sole-source IDIQ contract with NIB, which underscores continuity and efficiency in supplying vital products. Important timelines include the recent award and completion dates within a one-week span in the mid-2020s, ensuring timely fulfillment of government demands. This delivery order builds upon NIB’s ongoing commitment under an $800 million overarching IDIQ contract initiated by the General Services Administration, reinforcing long-term service provision while promoting employment for disabled individuals.
