Delivery Order for Specialized Duct Tape to National Industries for the Blind

This award represents a delivery order contract issued for specialized pressure-sensitive, vapor-proof, plastic-coated cloth duct tape with precise physical specifications to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), an organization dedicated to employing visually impaired individuals. The contract falls under a substantial indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) agreement previously awarded to NIB by the General Services Administration (GSA) to provide direct delivery services to military and civilian clients. This delivery order facilitates the timely procurement and delivery of essential duct tape products with detailed thickness, width, and adhesion properties, supporting ongoing operational needs. The contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, reflecting NIB's unique capabilities and limited competition in this procurement category, aligning with the agency’s commitment to promote social impact through disabled workforce employment. The scope includes short-term product delivery to a designated location in Alexandria, Virginia, with a performance period spanning approximately one week, ensuring prompt fulfillment. This award highlights the sustained partnership between the federal government and NIB, reinforcing the importance of continued support for specialized products while fostering employment opportunities for people with disabilities. The contract is part of an $800 million IDIQ contract framework that provides long-term stability and service continuity from NIB, established since 2021 under the GSA.
