Delivery Order #47QSSC26FDX5W

Short-Term Delivery Order for Mess Trays to National Industries for the Blind

This award is a delivery order contract issued under a larger indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract held by National Industries for the Blind (NIB). The recipient, NIB, is a nonprofit organization focused on employing individuals who are blind or visually impaired and providing specialized products and services to the federal government. The specific procurement involves the supply of compartmentalized mess trays, fulfilling operational needs likely for food service or military applications. This contract supports the broader $800 million IDIQ contract established by the General Services Administration, which enables sustained direct delivery services to military and civilian agencies. The significance of this award lies in its contribution to both the federal supply chain and the social mission of promoting employment for the visually impaired community. The scope includes the production and delivery of the mess trays within a concise, one-week period, emphasizing a rapid turnaround in response to agency requirements. The contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, justified by the unique positioning and limited competition in the market for products made by NIB. Key dates include a recent award and performance period in the fall of 2026. This delivery order builds upon the foundation set by the overarching GSA contract awarded in 2021, which remains active through 2026, ensuring continuity of service and supply.
