About this IDV
Samuel E Edelmann, a sole proprietorship, was awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement by the Social Security Administration (SSA), a civilian federal agency, effective April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2030. The contract, valued at $250,000.00, requires the contractor to provide vocational expert witness services to support the SSA in administrative hearings before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) regarding appeals of denied Social Security disability benefits. The vocational expert services involve testimony and analysis to evaluate disability claimants' ability to perform other work existing in significant numbers in the national economy. This BPA carries no set-aside provisions and represents a continuation of the contractor's prior engagements with the SSA, during which Mr. Edelmann delivered similar vocational expert consulting services through multiple firm fixed price BPA calls from 2019 through June 2020.
Under this IDV vehicle, Mr. Edelmann will deliver vocational expert express reporting and consulting services on an as-needed basis to support the SSA's administration of its disability benefits programs. The contract structure allows the SSA to issue task orders for specific vocational expert services as required, with performance occurring in Swissvale, Pennsylvania and other locations as designated in individual calls. The five-year period of performance provides the SSA with sustained access to qualified vocational expert services to efficiently process and adjudicate disability benefit appeals through the administrative hearing process, reducing potential delays in benefit determinations for claimants exercising their appeal rights.
