About this IDV

This Blanket Purchase Agreement, awarded to Jeffrey J Peterson & Associates (UEI: QJCJM5S2AN98) by the Social Security Administration on April 1, 2025, provides vocational expert witness services for administrative proceedings related to Social Security disability benefit appeals. The contract has a ceiling value of $250,000 and extends through March 31, 2030 under a single award structure with no set-aside provisions. The vocational expert services are delivered to support hearings before Administrative Law Judges who adjudicate appeals from claimants whose benefit requests have been denied. These expert witnesses provide specialized testimony regarding vocational matters, including labor market analysis, transferability of skills, and occupational availability relevant to disability determination cases. The contractor, operating as a sole proprietorship, draws on established experience delivering vocational expert consulting services to the Social Security Administration.

The contract represents a continuation of the contractor's relationship with the Social Security Administration, building upon previous Blanket Purchase Agreements established in 2019 and 2020 that generated task orders valued between $806 and $3,905 for vocational expert reporting services. Services under this agreement are procured on a task order basis through firm fixed price calls as needed to support Social Security Administration hearing offices. The arrangement allows the agency to leverage specialized vocational expertise on an as-needed basis rather than maintaining full-time expert staff, while providing the contractor with a defined vehicle for delivering expert testimony services across the agency's disability appeals process. No specific geographic restrictions or limitations are indicated in the contract documentation, though prior performance has included support to regional hearing offices.
