Delivery Order #47QSSC26F8NH1

Delivery Order for Picnic Knives under NIB's IDIQ Contract

This award represents a delivery order contract issued to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), an organization dedicated to creating employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The procurement involves the supply of picnic knives, which are part of the products NIB provides under a larger multi-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA). This IDIQ contract supports direct delivery services to military and civilian customers and is significant as it promotes disability employment while fulfilling federal supply needs. The scope of work for this delivery order includes the timely provision of picnic knives to be delivered within a short performance period of about a week. The award was issued as a sole-source delivery order under the existing IDIQ contract, which was justified by the limited competition in the industry and the unique mission of NIB. The parent IDIQ contract, with a substantial ceiling amount, was established to enable sustained federal procurement from NIB, with the initial award dating back to 2021 and ongoing modifications reinforcing continuous service. This recent delivery order thus exemplifies the ongoing commitment to utilizing NIB's products while supporting workforce inclusion for those with visual impairments.
