Delivery Order #47QSSC26F8R8P

Delivery Order for Abrasive Paper to National Industries for the Blind

This award represents a delivery order contract issued under an existing substantial Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration, originally awarded as a sole-source agreement to the National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB is a not-for-profit organization that provides employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, supporting federal agencies by delivering a variety of products and services designed to meet government needs. The contract procures abrasive paper, a specialized product necessary for maintenance and operational requirements, reflecting a focused acquisition within the scope of the larger IDIQ vehicle. The delivery order is for a short-term period with a swift delivery timeline, demonstrating a responsive supply arrangement. This award underscores the importance of enabling federal procurement from organizations supporting workforce inclusion, while ensuring timely access to essential products. The contract was competitively unnecessary due to the exclusive capabilities and mission alignment of NIB under the parent IDIQ contract. The overall procurement effort reinforces continued support for NIB’s role in federal supply chains and promotes the sustained employment of disabled individuals within government contracting.
