Delivery Order #47QSSC26FD15H

Short-Term Delivery Order for Upright Brooms Awarded to National Industries for the Blind

This contract is a definitive delivery order under a larger Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) agreement awarded to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a nonprofit organization that provides employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The procurement involves upright brooms featuring wooden or plastic blocks with flagged plastic fill and a tubular steel handle. The contract supports the General Services Administration (GSA) in providing essential cleaning supplies to federal customers. It is significant as it continues to engage NIB in its mission of promoting employment for disabled individuals while fulfilling government supply needs. The work consists of delivering these specific broom products within a short-term timeframe, spanning approximately one week. This delivery order falls under the broader $800 million single-award IDIQ contract established by the GSA through a sole-source process, justified by the specialized nature of the services and limited competition. The award timeline aligns with the overarching IDIQ's multi-year period starting in 2021, extending through 2026. The contract was executed with performance expected in Alexandria, VA. This order exemplifies ongoing support for government mandates to engage firms that empower disabled workers while ensuring procurement of necessary supplies.
