Delivery Order for Alkaline Manganese Dioxide Batteries to National Industries for the Blind

This award represents a delivery order contract issued to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a respected organization providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract concerns the procurement of non-rechargeable Type II alkaline manganese dioxide batteries, specifically size 'C' with a nominal voltage of 1.5 volts. These batteries are packaged in sets of four and must meet standards for freshness and expiration dates to ensure performance quality. The delivery order is part of a broader, substantial indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract previously awarded to NIB by the General Services Administration, enabling efficient direct delivery services to military and civilian customers. This contract underscores the federal government's commitment to supporting disability employment initiatives while securing reliable supply chains for essential battery products. The work involves timely delivery of compliant battery products, with a focused performance window of approximately one week, emphasizing prompt fulfillment. Awarded on a sole-source basis under the umbrella of an existing multi-year IDIQ contract, this delivery order reflects ongoing cooperation and trust between the agency and NIB. The contract is performed primarily in Alexandria, Virginia, and no subcontractors or prior related contracts are detailed for this specific delivery order.
