About this IDV

This Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), awarded as a single-award contract to Allison Berry (UEI: PVT9A72MJNQ3), establishes a vehicle for providing vocational expert witness services to the Social Security Administration (SSA). The contract, funded by the civilian SSA, carries a ceiling value of $250,000.00 and operates under the Vocational Expert major program code with no set-aside restrictions applied. The BPA became effective on April 1, 2025, and extends through March 31, 2030, providing a five-year period of performance to support the agency's administrative proceedings.

The contracted services specifically address SSA's need for expert witness testimony during hearings before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) in cases involving appeals of denied Social Security benefits. Vocational experts engaged under this BPA provide specialized testimony regarding labor market conditions, job availability, transferability of skills, and related occupational analysis to support benefit determination decisions. These expert services are integral to the SSA's adjudication process, enabling ALJs to make informed decisions on disability and related benefit claims. As a single-award BPA, this contract consolidates vocational expert witness procurement under one vendor rather than distributing requirements across multiple contractors.
