About this IDV

Kelman Rehabilitation Consultants, LLC, a single-award awardee, has been selected by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to provide vocational expert witness services under a Blanket Purchase Agreement with a ceiling value of $250,000.00 and a period of performance extending through March 31, 2030. The contract, awarded on April 1, 2025, does not utilize a set-aside designation and supports SSA's mission to administer the nation's Social Security programs. Under this IDV, Kelman Rehabilitation Consultants delivers vocational expert consulting and expert testimony services to support hearings conducted before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) who adjudicate appeals of denied Social Security benefits claims. The services are performed from the contractor's operations in Scottsdale, Arizona and are structured to provide comprehensive vocational analysis and expert witness testimony to assist ALJs in determining claimant eligibility for benefits under various SSA programs.

The vocational expert services procured through this BPA are designed to strengthen the adjudication process for Social Security disability claims and related benefit determinations.

These services enable ALJs to make informed decisions regarding benefit eligibility by providing professional testimony on claimants' residual functional capacity, transferability of skills, and availability of suitable work in the national economy. The BPA structure allows SSA to call upon the contractor's services on an as-needed basis throughout the five-year period of performance, ensuring access to qualified vocational experts to support the agency's administrative hearing processes without requiring a formal new procurement for each individual hearing.
