Delivery Order #47QSSC26FDHJP

Delivery Order for Nonrechargeable Batteries Awarded to National Industries for the Blind

This award is a definitive delivery order contract focused on procuring nonrechargeable batteries. The recipient, National Industries for the Blind (NIB), is a prominent nonprofit that provides employment opportunities for blind or visually impaired individuals. The contract represents a vital continuation of NIB's role in supplying essential products to government customers. The work encompasses the timely delivery of specified battery products in a short-term timeframe. This delivery order is part of a larger, significant single award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract previously granted to NIB by the General Services Administration (GSA), valued at up to $800 million, enabling federal direct delivery services. Notably, this contract was awarded on a sole-source basis due to the specialized nature of NIB’s workforce and limited competitive alternatives. The contract period is short but crucial, spanning approximately one week, ensuring readiness and support within federal supply chains. Overall, this award underlines the importance of inclusive contracting practices while meeting the government's logistical and operational needs.
