About this IDV

The National Transportation Safety Board awarded a $950,000 Blanket Purchase Agreement to Free State Reporting, Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Annapolis, Maryland, on September 27, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of September 26, 2025. This single-award contract, established under the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule program, procures comprehensive court reporting and transcription services to support the NTSB's investigative, administrative, and adjudicatory functions. Services encompass court reporter services for administrative law judge proceedings, transcription services for modal offices, and general court reporting support, with performance locations in both Washington, DC and Annapolis, Maryland. The contract employs firm fixed-price pricing and carries no small business set-aside designation despite the contractor's woman-owned small business status.

Five BPA calls have been issued against this master vehicle between September 2021 and September 2024, with individual ceiling values ranging from $97,000 to $230,219, demonstrating consistent utilization of the contract for the NTSB's recurring documentation needs. Free State Reporting brings substantial federal contracting experience, holding multiple significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicles with the Department of Labor, Department of Agriculture, and Department of Justice, among other agencies. The contractor's service delivery includes verbatim transcription across multiple formats, grand jury and deposition reporting, and administrative hearing documentation—capabilities essential for the NTSB's transportation accident investigations and safety proceedings that require accurate, timely legal documentation.
