About this file

This Statement of Work outlines court reporting service requirements for the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO), specifically for the Workers' Compensation Bureau, Board of Magistrates and the Bureau of Employment Relations (BER). The contractor must provide comprehensive court reporting services for contested workers' compensation cases heard by the Board of Magistrates, which are appointed by the Governor to adjudicate cases under the Workers' Disability Compensation Act of 1969. For BER services, the contractor must handle court reporting for BER hearings and Act 312 Arbitration hearings, with approximately 65 percent of these hearings held at various locations throughout Michigan including municipal buildings, attorney offices, and schools, while the remaining 35 percent are held in Detroit or Lansing. Contractors serving the tri-county area (Oakland, Macomb, Wayne, and Livingston counties) should expect significant travel requirements.

All transcripts must comply with statutory requirements under 2012 PA 371 and 1961 PA 236, and must follow the State Court Administrative Office standards as outlined in the Manual for Court Reporters and Recorders used by the State Court of Appeals. The contractor is required to deliver one paper transcript in condensed format along with a CD containing both condensed and full-sized transcripts, mailed to M. Greenough at the Detroit BER office. For the Workers' Compensation Bureau cases, the contractor has permission to access and retrieve digital recordings from courtroom recording systems maintained on the server for transcription purposes. Bidders must acknowledge compliance with all requirements or clearly document any exceptions and explain how they address the stated requirements.
