The Social Security Administration (SSA) has awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Anna Franco, a woman-owned small business in San Francisco, California, to provide regional medical consultant services in SSA Region 9. The BPA, valued at up to $2,664,400, has an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2025. Under this agreement, Franco will conduct independent medical case reviews and provide expert advisory services to support the SSA's disability determination programs in the San Francisco region. The BPA allows for the issuance of multiple firm fixed-price call orders, with recent call orders ranging from 350 to 1,800 case reviews, totaling over $201,000. This arrangement enables the SSA to flexibly draw upon Franco's extensive expertise in evaluating disability claims within Region 9 over the five-year period of performance. The original solicitation, issued in November 2020, sought 56 regional medical consultants for a five-year BPA in Region 9, with a small business set-aside. The awarded contract to Franco, a woman-owned small business, demonstrates the SSA's commitment to supporting small businesses and accessing specialized regional medical consultant services to efficiently and accurately assess disability claims within the San Francisco area.
