Delivery Order #47QSSC26FE47M

Delivery Order Contract Awarded to National Industries for the Blind Under Major IDIQ Agreement

This FPDS award represents a recent delivery order contract granted to National Industries for the Blind (NIB), a prominent nonprofit organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract is issued under a larger, substantial single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract facilitated by the General Services Administration (GSA). This overarching vehicle supports direct delivery services to federal military and civilian customers, underscoring NIB's critical role in federal procurement and social impact. The product or service described with this delivery order is labeled 'SPONGE,' indicating a specific item or service ordered within the scope of the IDIQ contract framework. The award highlights the ongoing collaboration between the federal government and NIB to procure necessary goods while promoting inclusivity and employment for disabled individuals. The delivery order work is scheduled within a concise timeline spanning approximately one week, reflecting a targeted procurement action under the broader contract that extends multiple years. This specific delivery order was issued under the sole-source basis of the parent IDIQ contract, which itself was awarded without competitive bidding due to the unique mission and capabilities of NIB. The connection to the significant parent contract awarded in 2021 reinforces the long-term, stable partnership and strategic importance of this agreement for both the agency and NIB's service population.
