Delivery Order #47QSSC26F91C7

Delivery Order for Absorbent Paper Towels to National Industries for the Blind

This award represents a delivery order under a longstanding Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract established by the General Services Administration (GSA) with National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB, an organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, is the recipient. The contract covers the procurement of highly absorbent, non-abrasive three-ply paper towels meeting specific size and tensile strength requirements, intended for use in federal government facilities. This delivery order supports a broader GSA contract enabling NIB to supply direct delivery services to military and civilian customers, reinforcing the agency's commitment to social responsibility and inclusive employment. The scope includes precise product specifications for soft plastic surface polishing towels, delivered within a one-week performance period. The award was made on a sole-source basis pursuant to the original IDIQ contract, reflecting limited competition in this specialized field. Deliveries will be performed at the government facility in Alexandria, Virginia. This order aligns with and builds upon the extensive IDIQ contract awarded to NIB, which facilitates significant and ongoing support for government procurements emphasizing both utility and social impact.
