ANN T. Neulicht, Ph.d PLLC

ANN T. Neulicht, Ph.d PLLC is a self-certified small disadvantaged, woman-owned business registered to receive federal contract awards since September 30, 2003. Based in Raleigh, North Carolina, the company primarily provides expert witness and vocational consulting services to federal agencies. As a partnership or limited liability partnership, ANN T. Neulicht, Ph.d PLLC specializes in offering professional expertise to support litigation activities and disability claims evaluations for various government departments.

The company has secured multiple federal contract awards, predominantly from the Department of Justice and the Social Security Administration. For the Department of Justice's Civil Division, ANN T. Neulicht, Ph.d PLLC was awarded a $45,920 purchase order in January 2024 to provide expert witness services through December 2025. This time and materials contract supports the agency's litigation activities with subject matter expertise. The Social Security Administration has also engaged the company's services through several Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) calls for VHR Express Reporting. These awards, ranging from approximately $1,800 to $3,800, were issued between 2019 and 2020 to support the agency's Vocational Expert program. All of these contracts were awarded without set-aside designations, indicating the company's ability to compete effectively in open market procurements.

ANN T. Neulicht, Ph.d PLLC holds a significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) with the Social Security Administration. This Blanket Purchase Agreement, awarded on April 1, 2020, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2025, establishes a framework for providing vocational expert consulting services. The BPA supports Region 4 hearing offices in proceedings before administrative law judges. While the ceiling value is listed as $0.00, this is typical for BPAs where the value is realized through subsequent task orders. The IDV enables the Social Security Administration to efficiently procure specialized consulting and reporting assistance for evaluating claimants' vocational factors and work abilities, crucial components in the disability determination process. This single-award BPA underscores the company's expertise in vocational assessment and its ongoing relationship with the Social Security Administration in supporting the agency's statutory mandate for thorough and expeditious review of disability benefit applications.
