Delany, Siegel, Zorn & Associates, Inc.

Delany, Siegel, Zorn & Associates, Inc. (doing business as DSZ), a woman-owned small business and SBA-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, provides Equal Employment Opportunity investigative, counseling, mediation, and alternative dispute resolution services to federal agencies as a prime contractor operating entirely through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule. DSZ competes predominantly under Total Small Business and Woman-Owned Small Business set-asides across its prime portfolio, though it also wins full-and-open delivery orders and BPA calls with civilian and defense agencies.

DSZ's capability portfolio centers narrowly on federal EEO complaint management and dispute resolution. The company conducts EEO investigations, provides counseling and mediation services, drafts Final Agency Decisions, and delivers alternative dispute resolution support addressing discrimination complaints and employment equity matters. Recent representative awards include a $6.76 million delivery order from the Defense Human Resources Activity (Defense Support Services Center Investigations and Resolutions Directorate) for EEO investigations and support services through June 2030, a $2.67 million delivery order from the Department of Transportation for EEO investigation and discrimination complaint processing through September 2029 (self-performed, no subcontractors), and a $999,600 delivery order from the Department of Labor's Assistant Secretary for Financial Resources for EEO investigative services through March 2027, all under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule. On the IDV side, DSZ holds a $3.17 million single-award BPA with the Social Security Administration for EEO case processing and investigative services through December 2029 (awarded November 2024), and participates in a $750,000 multiple-award BPA with the NASA Shared Services Center for EEO services through August 2028.

Customer concentration is broad across civilian federal agencies. The top five funding organizations by award count account for 33% of awards, led by NASA Headquarters (180 awards, $6.8 million combined potential value), the Social Security Administration (167 awards, $16.7 million), the Department of Agriculture Office of Operations (132 awards), the Naval Air Warfare Center (88 awards, $1.3 million), and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (79 awards, $2.1 million). By dollar value, the Social Security Administration anchors the top tier ($16.7 million across 167 awards), followed by the Department of Transportation ($14.6 million across 23 awards), NASA ($6.8 million across 180 awards), Immigration and Customs Enforcement ($4.4 million across 49 awards), and the Department of the Interior ($2.1 million across 38 awards). The divergence between volume and value—NASA and SSA carry the most awards but smaller individual ceilings—reflects DSZ's posture of winning numerous sub-$100,000 task orders from agencies it has established relationships with.

DSZ's parent vehicle footprint is dominated by its GSA Multiple Award Schedule position. The company operates 1,065 task orders under Federal Supply Schedule GS22F9784H (generating $550.2 million in combined potential value), 169 task orders under BPA GS22F9784H-SS000940023 ($3.7 million), 129 task orders under the broader Multiple Award Schedule vehicle ($79.7 million), 117 task orders under BPA GS22F9784H-NNH13CH82Z ($483 thousand), and 87 task orders under an indefinite delivery contract (N0042116D0008, $234 thousand). The GSA Schedule represents the overwhelming majority of DSZ's federal work; the company does not hold positions on government-wide acquisition contracts or agency-wide IDIQs beyond the SSA and NASA BPAs named above.

Recent activity has declined markedly. Awards per year fell from 18 in 2022 to 14 in 2023, 7 in 2024, 3 in 2025, and 3 in 2026 year-to-date. The recompete cliff is mild: only two awards (combined potential value $1.1 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, suggesting limited near-term recompete exposure relative to the vendor's broader portfolio.

SCI-reportable invoiced revenue for federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $8 million across FY2022–FY2025, with $3.5 million in FY2023, $1.4 million in FY2024, and $3.1 million in FY2025. The SCI dataset shows zero FTEs reported across all fiscal years in the source, consistent with DSZ's use of hourly labor rates rather than dedicated staffing models. The vendor self-performs all labor on reported contracts with no subcontractor engagement. GSA Schedule labor categories span administrative support through senior management, ranging from $99.28 per hour (Administrative Support, 1 year experience required) to $286.81 per hour (Alternative Dispute Resolution/Mediation, 5 years experience), with no security clearance requirements across any category. Primary roles center on EEO Counselor ($184.77/hr), Editor/Technical Support ($193.05/hr), and Alternative Dispute Resolution/Mediation ($286.81/hr), reflecting DSZ's EEO-focused service mix.

DSZ operates as a pure prime contractor—1,981 awards across its history, 100% as prime—with no subcontractor engagement reported in the SCI dataset or award records. The company delivers all work through its own labor force using billable hourly rates under firm-fixed-price task orders, a posture consistent with the labor-intensive, investigator-led nature of EEO complaint processing.

Human Resources Consulting Services (NAICS 541618), Investigation and Personal Background Check Services (NAICS 561611), and Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (NAICS 541611) dominate the category mix. The top PSC framing is Support–Professional: Other, covering 1,041 of DSZ's awards.
