Delivery Order #47QSSC26FD2SP

Delivery Order for Metal Blade Frames Awarded to National Industries for the Blind

This award is a delivery order contract placed under a large, multi-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) agreement held by National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB is an organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and it supports federal government procurement needs. The contract involves the procurement of squeegeelades, metal blade frames, and metal sockets designed for handles, featuring corrosion-resistant steel fasteners and blade frames made of brass or stainless steel. The blade frames measure approximately 11.75 inches in length and accommodate 15/16 inch diameter handles. The significance of this contract lies in its role in fulfilling a government requirement for these specific hardware components while promoting social objectives related to disability employment. The scope covers supply and delivery of these metal components to support federal operations. This delivery order was awarded under a sole-source contract vehicle, justified by the unique capabilities of NIB as the incumbent contractor under the overarching IDIQ contract. The work is scheduled for a short, one-week performance period, emphasizing a timely procurement cycle. This delivery order is part of the broader $800 million IDIQ contract awarded to NIB by the General Services Administration, which enables direct delivery services to military and civilian federal customers, ensuring stability and continued support through the contract's duration.
