Delivery Order #47QSSC26F926L

Delivery Order for Industrial Strength Duct Tape to National Industries for the Blind

This award is 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 opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. Known for supporting federal procurement needs, NIB is fulfilling this order by supplying industrial-strength yellow duct tape with specific characteristics including high tensile strength, easy tearability, and a high-tack adhesive. The contract fulfills a precise product requirement, ensuring the availability of essential materials for federal use. This contract is significant as it aligns with broader federal goals of supporting disability employment while meeting operational supply needs efficiently. It covers the provision of high-quality duct tape measuring 2 inches in width and 60 yards in length, designed for durability and practicality. The contract was awarded under the umbrella of a previously established $800 million IDIQ contract awarded to NIB on a sole-source basis due to the unique social mission and limited competition in this sector. The delivery order has a short performance timeline, spanning approximately one week in mid-2026, marked by prompt fulfillment expectations. No competing bids were solicited for this specific order, leveraging the existing indefinite delivery framework established by the original solicitation. This approach ensures rapid procurement and maintains continuity of supply critical to federal operations.
