Delivery Order #47QSSC26F8QNJ

Delivery Order for Pressure-Sensitive Duct Tape Awarded to National Industries for the Blind

This award is a delivery order contract issued to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), an organization that provides employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract involves the procurement of pressure-sensitive, vapor-proof, plastic-coated cloth duct tape in aluminum or silver-gray color with specified dimensions and adhesion properties. The contract is issued under a larger, ongoing single-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract previously awarded to NIB by the General Services Administration (GSA), facilitating direct delivery services to military and civilian customers. This procurement is significant as it supports both government operational needs and the empowerment of disabled individuals through employment. The scope includes supplying duct tape with minimum specifications for thickness, width, length, and adhesion. The contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, consistent with the parent IDIQ's justification of limited competition in this specialized field. The performance period for this delivery order is a short-term, multi-day timeframe. The place of performance is Alexandria, Virginia. This award builds upon the substantial parent IDIQ contract valued in the hundreds of millions, underscoring the trust and reliance placed on NIB for essential government supply needs.
