Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE4A620D5509

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation has awarded a series of firm fixed price delivery orders under an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to San Antonio Lighthouse For The Blind, a non-profit organization that provides employment opportunities to individuals with visual impairments. The contract, valued at up to $250,000, focuses on the procurement of spill containment socks to support DLA Aviation's supply chain management for the Department of Defense. The delivery orders, ranging from $4,435 to $16,962, have been issued without any set-aside provisions, demonstrating San Antonio Lighthouse For The Blind's ability to compete effectively in the open market. Performance on these orders will occur at the organization's facilities in San Antonio, Texas, with deliveries scheduled between 2020 and 2024. As the primary agency managing the Department of Defense's supply chain for repair parts, materials, and equipment, DLA Aviation likely requires these spill containment socks to maintain its stockpile of supplies for aircraft and aeronautical ground equipment maintenance at military installations.

The award of this IDC to San Antonio Lighthouse For The Blind aligns with the organization's mission of providing meaningful employment opportunities for individuals with visual impairments while delivering quality products to federal agencies. The organization's status as an AbilityOne non-profit agency, which provides employment and rehabilitation programs for the disabled, further supports its role as a reliable supplier of these specialized spill containment products to DLA Aviation and other government customers.
