Mary Beth Burnham

Mary Beth Burnham, operating as Burnham Reporting, is a sole proprietorship providing grand jury court reporting and transcription services to the U.S. Department of Justice's US Attorney's Offices as a prime contractor. The vendor is self-certified as a small disadvantaged business and competes on full-and-open contracting without set-aside designation. Burnham Reporting is headquartered in Canton, New York, and operates under NAICS 541370 (Court Reporting and Stenotype Services) and PSC Support-Administrative (Court Reporting).

The vendor's federal footprint is entirely concentrated with a single customer, the US Attorney's Offices, under one parent vehicle: a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC 15JA0522D00000160) awarded July 1, 2022, with a ceiling of $140,638.91 and a period of performance through June 30, 2027. Five annual time-and-materials delivery orders have been issued under this IDC since award, with order values ranging from $12,037.60 to $25,849.45. The most recent delivery order, issued July 1, 2026, carried a ceiling of $17,567.50 for grand jury court reporting services with performance in Syracuse, New York. Prior orders were issued July 1, 2025 ($17,613.89), July 1, 2024 ($12,037.60), July 1, 2023 ($17,669.45), and July 1, 2022 ($16,735.50); places of performance alternated between Syracuse and Plattsburgh, New York locations. Combined potential value across all six awards (the parent IDC plus five delivery orders) stands at $222 thousand, with $82 thousand obligated to date (37% of ceiling). Combined dollars obligated reflects the annual issuance cadence and time-and-materials billing structure — the vendor is paid only for work actually performed each fiscal year rather than against a full ceiling drawdown.

Activity has remained flat at one award per year from 2023 through 2026, following two awards in 2022 (the IDC and the first delivery order). One award carrying $18 thousand in combined potential value completes within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete opportunity for the parent IDC renewal in mid-2027. The vendor holds no sub-awards and serves no other federal customers; the relationship is entirely direct-to-USAOs as a sole proprietor serving the critical documentation function for federal grand jury proceedings across New York judicial districts.
