This is a delivery order contract awarded to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract procures Type II alkaline-manganese dioxide nonrechargeable batteries, specifically consumer size "C" batteries with strict specifications about packaging, voltage, and shelf life. The award supports ongoing essential supply needs for federal operations requiring reliable battery products. It builds upon a large, multi-year indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract awarded to NIB, which facilitates delivery services to military and civilian customers under a sole-source award justified by limited competition. The delivery order covers strict short-term performance between late May and early June 2026. Overall, this contract highlights sustained federal support for NIB’s mission and ensures continued access to critical battery supplies for government use.
