Delivery Order #47QSSC26FDE4J

Delivery Order for Paper Plates Under NIB IDIQ Contract

This award represents a delivery order contract issued to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a nonprofit organization that provides employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired by supplying products and services to federal agencies. The contract entails procurement of paper plates, facilitating NIB's mission while fulfilling government supply needs. This delivery order falls under a large, ongoing single award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA), valued at several hundred million dollars and designed for direct deliveries to military and civilian federal customers. The significance of this contract lies in its support of both federal procurement requirements and social good by empowering a disabled workforce. Work under this order includes timely delivery of specified disposable tableware products to the designated location in Alexandria, VA, within a clearly defined performance period of one week in the near future. The award was given on a sole-source basis under the umbrella IDIQ contract originally awarded competitively due to the limited competition in this specialized sector. Importantly, this delivery order builds upon NIB's ongoing contractual relationship with the federal government, ensuring continuity and reliability of supply and services. This short-term, narrowly tailored delivery directly contributes to the broader objectives of federal acquisition programs aimed at inclusive procurement and operational efficiency.
