About this IDV
The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Employu, Inc. (UEI: J8Z9XDA6ENQ5) on September 12, 2025, to provide vocational expert witness services for administrative hearings. The contract has a ceiling value of $250,000 and extends through March 31, 2030. This BPA was issued as a civilian procurement with no set-aside provisions and establishes a mechanism for SSA to procure qualified vocational experts as needed to support disability benefit appeals proceedings before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs).
Under this agreement, Employu, Inc. will provide vocational expert testimony and related services in connection with SSA disability benefit hearings, specifically for cases involving appeals of denied benefit claims. Vocational experts perform a critical function in these proceedings by offering professional opinions regarding a claimant's residual functional capacity, transferability of work skills, and availability of suitable work in the national economy—factors central to SSA's disability determination process. The BPA structure allows SSA to issue task orders or purchase orders against the established ceiling as hearings require expert witness services, ensuring flexibility in procurement while maintaining a pre-negotiated vendor relationship and pricing structure.
