Delivery Order #47QSSC26FCSLS

Delivery Order for Nonrechargeable Batteries to National Industries for the Blind

This award is a delivery order contract under an existing indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract originally awarded to National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB is a reputable organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and it functions as the prime recipient for federal contracts supporting social inclusion and disability employment. This contract specifically procures nonrechargeable batteries, a component with broad applications across governmental operations requiring reliable, single-use power sources. The significance of this contract lies in its continuation of NIB's role in supplying essential products to the federal government while supporting its mission to empower blind workers. The scope of work encompasses the delivery of nonrechargeable batteries within a short, defined timeframe, complementing the larger parent IDIQ contract which supports direct delivery services to military and civilian customers. Notably, this delivery order was awarded as part of a sole-source arrangement under the parent contract mechanism, emphasizing NIB's unique position as a trusted supplier. The contract's performance period is brief, spanning about a week in late August to early September 2026, reflecting a specific, urgent procurement need. The underlying parent contract, a significant multi-year IDIQ valued at approximately $800 million, supports and contextualizes this delivery order, affirming its role within a broader federal procurement strategy.
