The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Clothing and Textiles division has awarded a $127 million Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to The Travis Association For The Blind, doing business as Lighthouse For The Blind, a nonprofit organization that supports economic independence for the blind and visually impaired. Under this IDC, Lighthouse For The Blind has received multiple firm-fixed-price delivery orders, valued at over $21 million each, to provide third-party logistics services such as warehousing, inventory management, order fulfillment, and distribution of clothing and textiles for the military.
In addition to the logistics support services, Lighthouse For The Blind also holds other IDCs with DLA Troop Support Clothing and Textiles to supply various military uniform components, including trousers belts, coat belts, women's waist belts, and riggers belts. As an AbilityOne designated nonprofit agency, Lighthouse For The Blind has demonstrated its competitiveness in the open market, securing these federal contracts without set-aside designations. The organization's extensive expertise in manufacturing and distribution, along with its commitment to empowering individuals who are blind or visually impaired, has made it a reliable long-term supplier of both goods and services to multiple government agencies, including the Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Homeland Security during the COVID-19 pandemic.
