About this IDV
The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Recovery To Work Disability Services on April 2, 2025, with a ceiling value of $250,000 and an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2030. This BPA is established to procure vocational expert witness services for SSA hearings before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) in connection with appeals of denied Social Security benefits. The contract supports the SSA's adjudication process by providing expert testimony and vocational assessments to evaluate claimants' ability to engage in substantial gainful activity—a critical determination factor in Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) eligibility decisions. No set-aside restrictions were applied to this single-award procurement. Recovery To Work Disability Services, a for-profit entity headquartered as a civilian contractor, serves as the sole prime contractor under this vehicle.
Under this BPA, Recovery To Work Disability Services delivers vocational assessment reports and expert consulting services that evaluate applicants' vocational capacity and earnings potential in support of SSA's disability determination process. The contractor has previously provided "VHR Express Reporting" services related to vocational rehabilitation evaluations, with prior task orders totaling approximately $30,742.70 executed in New Orleans with firm fixed pricing. The BPA structure allows the SSA to issue individual call orders against the established ceiling value as vocational expert services are required for specific ALJ hearings and benefit appeals. This indefinite delivery vehicle provides the SSA with a streamlined mechanism to obtain specialized vocational expertise necessary for conducting fair and thorough disability benefit adjudications throughout the contract's five-year performance period.
