Delivery Order #47QSSC26F91QF

NIB Delivery Order for Pressure-Sensitive Duct Tape under GSA IDIQ Contract

This award is a delivery order contract under an existing significant Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA). The recipient is National Industries for the Blind (NIB), an organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. NIB operates under a substantial single-award IDIQ contract with GSA that supports federal direct delivery services. The current delivery order procures specialized pressure-sensitive, vapor-proof, plastic-coated cloth duct tape with specified physical characteristics including thickness, width, length, and adhesion. This contract is important as it facilitates procurement of essential materials for government use while supporting the agency’s commitment to social responsibility by employing disabled individuals. The scope of work covers delivery of duct tape products meeting detailed quality and size standards. This delivery order is awarded as a continuation under the existing sole-source overarching IDIQ contract, reflecting limited competition justified by NIB's unique mission and capabilities. The performance period for this order is a short-term, week-long timeframe based in Alexandria, Virginia. The prior IDIQ award established a multi-year program with significant anticipated value, ensuring stability and ongoing supply capability. This focused procurement illustrates how federal contracts can combine operational needs with social impact, leveraging NIB’s expertise within a well-managed contract vehicle.
