This award represents a delivery order contract under a significant single-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA). The recipient is National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a prominent organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. Under this delivery order, NIB is contracted to supply non-rechargeable Type II-Alkaline manganese dioxide AA batteries, packaged in sets of four, adhering to strict quality and shelf-life standards. This contract is crucial for supporting ongoing federal procurement needs with reliable battery products, which are commonly used in a variety of government operations. The scope includes ensuring timely delivery and adherence to expiration requirements within a brief, defined performance period. The award was made as a sole-source delivery order under the umbrella of the larger IDIQ contract, reflecting the specialized nature of the work and NIB's unique capacity to fulfill such orders. Key timeline milestones include the award initiating a short-term delivery window in mid-2026. This delivery order builds upon the existing $800 million IDIQ contract awarded to NIB to facilitate direct delivery services to military and civilian customers, reinforcing the sustained partnership and government commitment to supporting employment for disabled individuals.
