Valued at $58,256, this firm fixed-price delivery order was issued without a set-aside designation and provides digital audio recording and verbatim transcription services for Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income appeal hearings conducted in multiple formats, including in-person, video teleconference, and telephone proceedings. The contract was ultimately completed on June 13, 2024, following the award date of November 15, 2022.

This delivery order operates under one of three Indefinite Delivery Contracts that Business Support Services currently holds with the SSA, collectively valued at approximately $22.5 million through December 2026. These IDCs, all designated as total small business set-asides, cover verbatim hearing recorder services across three major geographic regions: Southeast Sub-Region 4-3 (Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee), Southeast Sub-Region 4-1 (Georgia and Florida), and Mid-West/West Region 10 (Oregon, Washington, Alaska).
