Delivery Order #47QSSC26F914F

Delivery Order for Mechanic Gloves to National Industries for the Blind

This award represents a delivery order contract issued under an existing large-scale Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract held by National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract involves procuring specialized men's mechanic gloves, characterized by stretch knit backs, padded knuckles, double-layered synthetic leather palms, and secure elastic cuffs with hook and loop closures. The gloves are intended for use in demanding work environments, reflecting the federal government's need for durable personal protective equipment. The order supports ongoing efforts by NIB to supply high-quality products while promoting social impact through workforce inclusion. The scope of work covers the delivery of the specified gloves in size large within a one-week performance period, exemplifying a rapid procurement cycle. This order was awarded on a sole-source basis under the parent IDIQ contract, which was competitively awarded and has a significant ceiling value, allowing streamlined ordering for direct delivery services to federal and military customers. The parent contract's significance lies in its dual role of meeting government supply needs while advancing employment for disabled individuals. Key milestones include the original large-scale IDIQ award in late 2021 and this recent delivery order in mid-2026. The place of performance is Alexandria, Virginia, where the product delivery is coordinated. No subcontractors are reported for this order, and the procurement aligns with overall program goals of utilizing efficient contracting vehicles to support federal readiness and workforce development objectives.
