Diversified Reporting Services, Inc.

Diversified Reporting Services, Inc., a women-owned small business headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor providing court reporting, transcription, deposition support, and litigation documentation services to 71 federal agencies, competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements without set-aside restrictions, though the company holds SBA women-owned small business (WOSB) certification and competes opportunistically under total small business set-asides on U.S. Attorney and Department of State work.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on stenographic and digital court reporting, verbatim transcription, deposition scheduling and administration, and litigation support across NAICS 561492 (Court Reporting and Stenotype Services) and PSC Support-Administrative codes. Representative contract work includes a $12.7 million BPA call with the Securities and Exchange Commission (GSA MAS) for court reporting and investigative transcripts services, a $5 million Department of State Bureau of Public Affairs BPA for transcription services through March 2029, a $1.9 million Office of the Comptroller of the Currency definitive contract for nationwide court reporting services (July 2026–June 2031, with optional renewal), a $3.7 million SEC BPA call for investigative and administrative reporting and transcription services (GSA MAS), and multiple single-award IDIQs with U.S. Attorney's Offices for grand jury and deposition court reporting, including recent awards to the District of Columbia ($2.6 million for grand jury court reporting through October 2030, $4.5 million for Superior Court grand jury services through October 2030, and $1.8 million for District Court grand jury through July 2030).

Customer concentration is extreme. The Securities and Exchange Commission anchors 84 percent of combined potential value across the top five agencies, with $106.1 million in 10 awards; this stark concentration reflects a few large BPA vehicles carrying multi-year, multi-million-dollar ceilings rather than numerous smaller orders. By award count, the Department of Justice U.S. Attorney's Offices lead with 33 awards ($35.5 million), followed by DOJ Justice Management Division (20 awards, $25 thousand), Department of State Bureau of Public Affairs (18 awards, $17.1 million), Department of Veterans Affairs Headquarters (16 awards, $1.1 million), and DEA (15 awards, $15 thousand). The two rankings diverge sharply — SEC dominates dollars while U.S. Attorneys dominate order volume — signaling that SEC work channels through large standing BPAs while U.S. Attorney work splits into many smaller task orders and purchase orders.

The vendor holds task-order positions on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (75 task orders, $79.2 million combined potential value), the Federal Supply Schedule GS07F0471N (21 task orders, $269 thousand), Temporary Administrative and Professional Staffing (14 task orders, $549 thousand), and several single-award IDIQs. The MAS seat is the primary fulcrum, hosting SEC, OIG, DISA, and State Department work.

Recent activity shows mixed trajectory. Awards per calendar year rose from 10 in 2022 to 23 in 2025, but 2026 dropped to 11 year-to-date, suggesting volatility rather than sustained growth. Within the next twenty-four months, six awards carrying combined potential value of $5.5 million face ultimate completion and recompete exposure, the largest being the OCC nationwide court reporting contract (due June 2031 but carrying $1.9 million in ceiling). This represents modest recompete risk relative to the $204.7 million combined potential value of the full portfolio.

SCI-reported invoicing across federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $16.6 million across FY2022–FY2024 (FY2025 data not yet available in SCI). The trajectory declined from $5.3 million in FY2022 across 59.4 FTEs to $6.1 million in FY2024 across 38.1 FTEs, indicating reduced FTE delivery alongside rising revenue per employee — reflecting shift toward higher-value senior reporting and transcription roles. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable federal service contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $23.84/hr through a median of $36.89/hr to a 90th percentile of $101.88/hr, reflecting a span from entry-level transcription to experienced court reporter senior labor. Across prime contracts captured in SCI, subcontractors performed approximately 9 percent of total contractor hours, with 2 named subcontractors reported; this low sub-engagement share indicates that Diversified Reporting self-performs substantially all delivery.

The vendor operates as a pure prime, with 100 percent of 361 awards since 1986 held as prime contracts or IDVs and no recorded federal contract sub-award activity, making it a direct-delivery operator rather than a feeder to larger federal contractors. The company maintains no known teaming relationships or subcontract footprint; the minimal SCI sub-hours suggest occasional use of specialized labor rather than systemic subcontracting strategy. This posture concentrates execution risk and capability supply entirely within the vendor's own staffing and operations. SAM registration dates to January 2002, establishing a twenty-four-year federal contracting presence with particular depth in SEC, DOJ, and State Department environments.
