About this IDV

The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement to McCain Vocational Consulting, LLC (UEI: JPDRM2WKN3Z7) effective April 1, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2030. This indefinite delivery vehicle, valued at $250,000.00 with no set-aside provisions, was established under the Vocational Expert program code to supply vocational expert witness services for administrative hearings. The primary purpose of this BPA is to provide qualified vocational experts to testify before Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) during benefit appeals proceedings, specifically in cases where applicants or recipients contest SSA denials of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.

The vocational expert services procured under this agreement support SSA's adjudication process by providing specialized testimony regarding labor market conditions, transferability of skills, and the availability of work suitable for claimants with documented disabilities and functional limitations. By securing these services through an IDV mechanism, the SSA ensures access to qualified vocational experts on an as-needed basis to support the hearing process at locations where ALJ proceedings occur. The five-year contract period provides the agency with flexibility to issue task orders or purchase orders up to the established ceiling value while maintaining a pre-qualified contractor relationship for this specialized professional service requirement.
