Certified Court Reporters, Inc.

Certified Court Reporters, Inc., a woman-owned small business (WOSB) and self-certified small disadvantaged business (SDB) based in Jacksonville, Florida, provides court reporting and transcription services to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor. The vendor operates as a Subchapter S corporation and competes across both set-aside (Total Small Business) and full-and-open vehicles, with 99 of 100 recent awards falling under NAICS 541612 (Court Reporting and Stenotype Services).

The Department of Justice dominates Certified Court Reporters' customer footprint, accounting for 22 of the vendor's 84 tracked awards (26% of total count) and 98% of combined potential value across all customers. The top-ranking customer by volume and dollars is the U.S. Attorney's Offices (Department of Justice), with 10 awards carrying $1.8 million in combined potential value; the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys (DOJ) adds 12 awards valued at $621 thousand. The Internal Revenue Service (Department of the Treasury) ranks first by award count at 52 orders but carries only $12 thousand in combined potential value, reflecting the volume of small, discrete purchase orders for court reporter services rather than sustained IDIQs. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VISN 10), the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command, and the Army Corps of Engineers Jacksonville District round out the active customer set with minimal dollar concentration.

Certified Court Reporters holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the U.S. Attorney's Offices (DOJ), awarded October 1, 2022, with a $609,304.75 ceiling running through September 30, 2027. This IDC is designated Total Small Business set-aside and has generated multiple delivery orders: $21,888 (October 2022–September 2023), $25,567 (October 2023–September 2024), $40,000 (October 2024–September 2025), and $186,217 (October 2025–September 2026). Work is performed at U.S. Attorney's Office locations in Florida, primarily Tampa and Jacksonville. The vendor also holds three other DOJ IDIQs generating smaller task orders. Outside the DOJ IDC, Certified Court Reporters receives sporadic purchase orders from the IRS, Veterans Affairs, Naval Sea Systems Command at Kings Bay Base, Georgia, and other agencies for ad hoc court reporting and deposition support.

Activity has declined over the past four years (three awards in 2022, one in 2023, two in 2024, one in 2025, one in 2026), reflecting the consolidated nature of the DOJ IDC relationship and the small-dollar, transaction-based purchase-order business from other agencies. Combined potential value across all 100 awards is $2.6 million, with $831 thousand obligated (32% of potential). The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontractor relationships in the source data.

Certified Court Reporters Inc. has been in business for 22 years providing court reporting services for any any proceeding where a verbatim transcript is required.
