Delivery Order #47QSSC27F0B98

Delivery Order for Paper Plates to National Industries for the Blind

This award represents a delivery order under an existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract managed by the General Services Administration (GSA). The recipient, National Industries for the Blind (NIB), is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The contract entails the procurement and delivery of paper plates to support the agency’s routine supply needs. This specific delivery order highlights the ongoing collaboration between GSA and NIB, reinforcing the government's commitment to social impact by promoting employment for disabled workers alongside fulfilling supply requirements. The scope of work involves delivering specified quantities of paper plates to Alexandria, Virginia, within a one-week timeframe. Awarded on a sole-source basis, the contract capitalizes on NIB's specialized mission, which justifies limited competition. This delivery order continues under a larger, substantial IDIQ contract awarded in 2021, designed as a long-term agreement that facilitates direct delivery services to military and civilian customers, thereby ensuring stable support for government consumption needs while sustaining meaningful employment for visually impaired individuals.
