This award represents a delivery order contract issued under an existing single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract previously established by the General Services Administration (GSA) with National Industries for the Blind (NIB). NIB, an organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, is the recipient. The delivery order procures a folding utility knife — specifically a craftsman’s knife featuring a pointed steel blade, a yellow metal handle equipped with a lanyard hole, metal belt clip, and push-and-flip opening mechanism. This contract is significant as it supports NIB's ongoing mission to supply quality products while promoting disability employment within the federal supply chain. The scope includes the delivery of this specialized utility knife to a government location in Alexandria, Virginia. Awarded on a sole-source basis as a task order under the larger IDIQ contract, it leverages NIB's unique capability in this niche market segment. The contract’s performance period is short-term, covering approximately one week in late 2026. It builds on the parent IDIQ contract, which itself is a substantial multi-year award facilitating direct deliveries to military and civilian agencies, furthering government procurement goals and social good through disability employment support.
