This award is a delivery order contract under a larger single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA), specifically for nonrechargeable batteries. The recipient is National Industries for the Blind (NIB), an organization dedicated to creating employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. NIB specializes in providing products and services that support federal agency needs, including essential supplies like batteries. The contract supports government operations by ensuring a reliable supply of these batteries, which are critical for various federal applications. Work under this delivery order involves the procurement and direct delivery of nonrechargeable batteries to the designated performance location in Alexandria, Virginia, over a short-term period of approximately one week. This delivery order is linked to a substantial multi-year $800 million IDIQ contract awarded solely to NIB, emphasizing its unique capability and the limited competition in this market sector. The original long-term contract was established to promote stable federal procurement while supporting employment for the visually impaired. The recent delivery order represents a continuation of this important partnership, reinforcing ongoing federal supply chain needs and social impact objectives.
