About this IDV
The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement valued at $250,000.00 to Bustin Sheryl L, a sole proprietorship specializing in vocational expert consulting services, effective April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2030. This contract provides vocational expert witnesses to support SSA hearings conducted before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) in cases involving appeals of denied disability benefits. The services are delivered from the contractor's place of performance in Lititz, Pennsylvania, supporting Region 03 hearing offices. The contract was awarded without set-aside designation, indicating full and open competition. Vocational expert testimony and analysis are critical components of disability determination proceedings, as they directly inform ALJ decision-making regarding claimants' vocational capabilities and residual functional capacity to engage in work activity.
Under this agreement, the prime contractor delivers specialized vocational assessment and expert consulting services tailored to support the SSA's administrative hearing process. The scope encompasses vocational expert witness services that analyze disability claimants' vocational factors, work history, and ability to perform substantial gainful activity. Based on the vendor's existing performance history with SSA, services likely include vocational history reporting and expert analysis consistent with the contractor's demonstrated expertise in vocational rehabilitation and disability evaluation methodologies. The single-award structure establishes an exclusive contracting relationship for these specialized services within the specified geographic region, with calls anticipated to be issued against the contract ceiling throughout its five-year period of performance to address ongoing ALJ hearing support requirements.
