Delivery Order #47QSSC26F8P9B

Delivery Order for Ergonomic Folding Utility Knives Awarded to National Industries for the Blind

This award is a delivery order contract under a significant Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract previously established by the General Services Administration (GSA) with National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB, an organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, is tasked with supplying specialized folding utility knives characterized by ergonomic black and yellow nylon handles and steel blades with push-button blade change features. The contract emphasizes accessibility and utility, aligning with NIB's mission to empower visually impaired workers while fulfilling federal procurement needs. This specific work involves delivering these craftsman-style knives to a designated location within a succinct, short-term timeframe, demonstrating an ongoing relationship supporting direct delivery services to military and civilian customers. The contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, reflecting the unique qualifications of NIB in this field and justified by the limited competition for such specialized products. This delivery order builds upon the larger IDIQ contract, adding to the agency's ability to procure essential tools efficiently while supporting a meaningful social mission.
