About this IDV
This Blanket Purchase Agreement, awarded to Tucker, Deborah White (UEI: NZVKCHTCAN54), a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship, provides vocational expert witness services to the Social Security Administration (SSA) in support of administrative hearings before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs). The contract, valued at $250,000 with a ceiling through March 31, 2030, was awarded on April 2, 2025, as a single award with no set-aside designation applied to the BPA vehicle itself. Services are performed in Midland, North Carolina, and support the SSA's disability benefits appeal process by providing expert vocational testimony and analysis for claimants challenging SSA determinations regarding eligibility for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.
The primary deliverable under this BPA is the provision of qualified vocational expert consulting and testimony services for SSA Region 04 Hearing Offices. Vocational experts serve a critical function in Social Security disability hearings by providing professional assessment of a claimant's residual functional capacity, work history, transferable skills, and employment prospects—factors that directly inform ALJ determinations regarding disability eligibility. Call orders issued under this BPA vehicle will be placed on an as-needed basis throughout the five-year performance period to address the SSA's ongoing demand for expert vocational services across its hearing operations.
