The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles (DLA) awarded National Industries For The Blind (NIB), doing business as Nsite, a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to provide innerspring mattresses. Under this $37,028,984.10 contract, NIB has received multiple firm-fixed-price delivery orders ranging from $1.7 million to $6.27 million to deliver quantities of 850,000 to 8,500 mattresses to DLA locations in Alexandria, Virginia. The period of performance for these task orders spans from December 2019 through December 2022. As the AbilityOne-designated prime contractor, NIB is responsible for manufacturing and delivering the mattresses to support the mission of the Department of Defense and equip military personnel with suitable bedding. No set-aside designations were applied to these procurements, though NIB's status as a non-profit agency under the AbilityOne program enables it to compete for and receive these federal contract awards. The Defense Logistics Agency manages the global supply chain for the U.S. military, procuring clothing, textiles, and related items to outfit and equip service members. This Indefinite Delivery Contract with NIB aligns with DLA's core function of providing logistics support and ensuring the availability of necessary materials and equipment for the armed forces. By leveraging NIB's manufacturing capabilities and employment of individuals who are blind or have significant disabilities, these mattress delivery orders facilitate the agency's mission while also promoting federal contracting opportunities for qualified non-profit organizations.
