About this award
National Industries For The Blind (NIB), a tax-exempt nonprofit organization and established AbilityOne agency headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, was awarded a delivery order valued at $1,121.40 by the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service on April 16, 2026. The contract calls for the delivery of three-ply paper towels with minimum dimensions of 14.75 inches per side and an overall area of at least 250 square inches, designed for wiping and polishing soft plastic surfaces. The towels must meet specified performance standards including a minimum tensile strength of 388 ounces per inch when dry and 78 ounces per inch when wet, emphasizing high absorbency and non-abrasive characteristics suitable for sensitive surfaces. Performance is scheduled for completion by April 23, 2026, at the place of performance in Alexandria, Virginia. The contract was awarded under a firm fixed-price structure with no set-aside designation, indicating NIB's competitive positioning in open federal procurement markets.
This delivery order represents one of numerous awards issued to NIB through the Federal Acquisition Service, reflecting the organization's broad portfolio of facility maintenance, cleaning supplies, and specialized products for civilian federal agencies. NIB's mission centers on creating employment opportunities for individuals who are blind or have significant visual disabilities while supplying diverse goods to the federal government. In addition to this smaller delivery order, NIB holds a substantial $76.2 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency's Clothing and Textiles division, awarded in August 2025, which supports Department of Defense requirements for military apparel and textile products through 2028, demonstrating the organization's capability to fulfill both civilian and defense procurement requirements across multiple price points and product categories.
