About this IDV

The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement to Western Slope Rehabilitation, Inc., a veteran-owned small business, effective April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2030, with a ceiling value of $250,000. This indefinite delivery vehicle was established to provide vocational expert witness services to support SSA administrative proceedings. Specifically, the contract delivers expert testimony and consulting services for hearings before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) involving appeals of benefit denial determinations under programs administered by the SSA. The prime contractor furnishes vocational analysis, assessments, and expert reporting necessary to support disability determination and adjudication processes. No set-aside was used in this procurement, and the contract represents a continuation of Western Slope Rehabilitation's existing relationship with the SSA to deliver vocational rehabilitation expertise.

The vocational expert services procured under this blanket purchase agreement are essential to the SSA's administrative review process, where expert testimony regarding claimant work capacity and vocational feasibility directly influences ALJ decisions on disability benefit eligibility. As an indefinite delivery vehicle, this BPA establishes a pre-negotiated contract vehicle against which the SSA may issue individual task orders or calls as hearing demands arise, ensuring timely access to qualified vocational expert witnesses without requiring separate competitive procurements for each engagement. The five-year performance period and established ceiling value provide the SSA with budgeted capacity for vocational expert services while allowing the contractor flexibility to scale service delivery based on actual hearing schedules and caseload requirements throughout the contract term.
