This BPA establishes an indefinite delivery vehicle for the provision of vocational expert witness services to support SSA administrative law judge (ALJ) hearings related to appeals of denied Social Security disability benefits. The contractor will deliver vocational expert testimony regarding job availability and claimants' capacity to engage in substantial gainful activity as part of SSA's disability determination process. Services will be performed in Allison Park, Pennsylvania, and no set-aside designation was applied to this procurement.
Under this BPA structure, the SSA will issue task orders on an as-needed basis to procure vocational expert consulting services on a firm fixed-price basis.
