About this IDV
Dumas Brenda E, a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship, was awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement by the Social Security Administration (SSA) on April 1, 2025, with a ceiling value of $250,000 and an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2030. This five-year indefinite delivery contract, which utilized no set-asides, establishes a vehicle for the SSA to procure vocational expert consulting services and expert witness testimony to support disability benefits determination hearings conducted before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) at SSA Region 04 hearing offices. The contract enables the issuance of firm fixed-price calls against the blanket purchase agreement to obtain vocational expert services as needed for specific hearings and appeals related to SSA-administered disability benefits programs.
Under this IDV, Dumas Brenda E will provide expert witness services that assist the SSA in determining eligibility for disability benefits through testimony and consulting reports presented during ALJ appeal hearings. Based on the contractor's performance history, individual calls under this agreement are anticipated to range from approximately $15,000 to $37,000, with services delivered at SSA Region 04 hearing offices. The vocational expert consulting services are critical to the SSA's adjudication process, as expert testimony regarding vocational feasibility and labor market conditions directly informs ALJ determinations in cases where claimants appeal initial denials of disability benefits under programs administered by the SSA.
