About this IDV

The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Forgus Joel, doing business as Joel Forgus PHD, on March 23, 2021, with a ceiling value of $3,108,080.00 and ultimate completion date of January 31, 2028. The contract provides regional medical consultant services for the SSA's Office of Disability Determinations in Region 5 (Chicago), with primary work performed in Village of The Hills, Texas, and Chicago, Illinois. Under this Indefinite Delivery Vehicle, the SSA issues call orders for Forgus Joel to conduct independent medical reviews and assessments of disability claim case files to support the agency's determination of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability benefits. The original solicitation, posted on October 22, 2020, was structured as a total small business set-aside, though subsequent call orders have been awarded without set-aside designations, indicating the contractor's ability to compete in the open market.

Since the BPA establishment, the SSA has issued ten call orders ranging from $14,400.00 to $217,800.00, each typically involving between 800 and 1,800 independent case reviews performed on a firm fixed-price basis. These call orders support the agency's medical contractors program, which aims to obtain specialized medical expertise for adjudicating complex disability claims. The cumulative value of executed task orders through the most recent award in March 2026 demonstrates consistent utilization of this vehicle to maintain adequate medical review capacity. The contracted services are essential to the SSA's disability determination process, enabling the agency to obtain consultative medical examinations and independent expert assessments that inform eligibility decisions for millions of disability benefit recipients nationwide.
