About this IDV
The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement to ANN T. Neulicht, Ph.D PLLC effective April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2030, with a ceiling value of $250,000. This indefinite delivery vehicle procures vocational expert witness services to support SSA administrative proceedings, specifically hearings before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) involving appeals of denied Social Security disability benefit claims. The contractor provides expert testimony and vocational analysis evaluating claimants' work capacity and vocational factors, which constitute essential elements in the disability determination process. The BPA was awarded without set-aside designations under the Vocational Expert program code, reflecting open market competition. Based on the contractor's registration location and prior SSA engagements, performance of services is anticipated primarily at SSA Region 4 hearing offices, though specific places of performance are not detailed in the provided materials.
ANN T. Neulicht, Ph.D PLLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Raleigh, North Carolina, brings substantial relevant experience to this engagement, having provided expert witness and vocational consulting services to federal agencies since 2003, including prior task orders with SSA's Vocational Expert program and litigation support services with the Department of Justice. Under this single-award BPA framework, the contractor will fulfill vocational expert services through task orders issued against the $250,000 ceiling, enabling SSA to efficiently procure specialized expertise for evaluating disability benefit claims without requiring separate competitive procurements for each engagement. The structure allows SSA to address expedited hearing schedules and maintain continuity in its adjudication processes while leveraging the contractor's established qualifications in vocational assessment.
