This award represents a delivery order contract issued under a substantial single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA). The recipient, National Industries for the Blind (NIB), is an organization dedicated to providing employment for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. In this contract, NIB is tasked with delivering Type II alkaline manganese dioxide "C" size batteries, packaged in sets of four, with specific requirements for voltage, shelf-life, and expiration, to meet federal operational needs. The contract reinforces the government's commitment to supporting employment opportunities for disabled individuals while ensuring a reliable supply of critical energy products. The scope includes the provision and delivery of these specialized batteries with strict quality and shelf-life standards. This delivery order stems from a sole-source basis under the parent IDIQ contract, originally awarded for direct delivery services to military and civilian customers, emphasizing limited competition due to the unique social and operational mission of the recipient. The short performance timeline highlights a focused delivery schedule for this specific order.
