Delivery Order #47QSSC26FCV42

Delivery Order for Disposable Gloves Under National Industries for the Blind IDIQ Contract

This award represents a delivery order contract issued to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a prominent organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract pertains to the procurement of disposable gloves, a critical product supporting various federal agency needs. This specific delivery order falls under a substantial, long-term Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract previously awarded to NIB by the General Services Administration (GSA), which enables direct delivery services to military and civilian customers. Awarded on a sole-source basis, the underlying IDIQ contract reflects the limited competition in this specialized procurement sector while emphasizing social impact by promoting employment for disabled individuals. The scope of this delivery order covers the supply and timely delivery of disposable gloves to fulfill immediate operational requirements. The period of performance for the delivery order is short-term, spanning approximately one week, demonstrating a focused and rapid response to supply needs. The parent IDIQ contract, with a significant ceiling value, was initially awarded in 2021 and continues through 2026, providing a stable framework for ongoing deliveries such as this one. This award underscores the government’s commitment to supporting critical supplies while fostering inclusive employment and leveraging established contract vehicles for efficient procurement.
