About this IDV

Phoenix Rehabilitation Corporation, a woman-owned small business, has been awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to provide vocational expert witness services for administrative law judge (ALJ) hearings. This civilian contract, valued at $250,000 and effective from April 1, 2025 through March 31, 2030, furnishes vocational experts to support SSA's appeals process for individuals contesting denials of disability and related benefits. The BPA structure enables the SSA to issue task orders on an as-needed basis to procure vocational expert consulting services, vocational evaluation reports, and related deliverables that directly support ALJ hearing proceedings. This contract represents a continuation and expansion of Phoenix's existing relationship with the SSA, building on prior firm fixed-price task orders and an earlier BPA award issued in April 2020 for Region 04 hearing offices.

The vocational expert services procured under this agreement are integral to the SSA's administrative appeals process, which requires objective, independent assessment of claimants' vocational capabilities and work-related limitations. Phoenix's deliverables, including VHR Express Reporting and ME-VE Express Reporting services, provide the evidentiary documentation necessary for ALJs to make informed determinations regarding benefit eligibility. By leveraging vocational rehabilitation and employability evaluation expertise, the contract supports the SSA's dual mandate to administer benefits while promoting employment outcomes for individuals with disabilities. The use of a blanket purchase agreement vehicle enables flexible, cost-effective procurement while maintaining service continuity across multiple SSA hearing office locations throughout the five-year performance period.
