Delivery Order #47QSSC26F92CE

Short-Term Delivery Order for Alkaline AAA Batteries to National Industries for the Blind

This award represents a delivery order contract under a significant indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle managed by the General Services Administration (GSA). The recipient, National Industries for the Blind (NIB), is an organization that employs individuals who are blind or visually impaired and supports federal agencies by providing vital products and services. The contract procures Type II alkaline manganese dioxide AAA batteries, packaged in units of four, ensuring fresh stock with strict shelf life requirements. This award is significant as it enables NIB to continue its important mission of providing employment opportunities while fulfilling essential supply needs for the government. The work covers the procurement and delivery of specified batteries within a concise one-week performance window, reflecting the government’s need for timely resupply. The contract was awarded under a sole-source arrangement justified by NIB’s established role and unique capabilities within the umbrella IDIQ contract. This delivery order is part of a broader, multi-year IDIQ contract awarded to NIB, which supports sustained service delivery and promotes workforce inclusion for disabled individuals. Key milestones include the original IDIQ award in 2021 and this recent delivery order scheduled for completion within a week in mid-2026.
