Lipka.com, Inc.

Lipka.com, Inc., doing business as Lipka COM Inc., is a woman-owned small business based in New Orleans, Louisiana, that provides court reporting, deposition stenography, grand jury reporting, and interpreter services to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontracting footprint. The vendor competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides, which account for the majority of its recent Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Department of Justice; it also holds awards on full-and-open and non-set-aside delivery orders.

Lipka.com's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Department of Justice litigative functions. The top five funding agencies by award count account for 82% of recent activity: the U.S. Attorney's Offices (36 awards, $8.5 million combined potential value), the Executive Office for US Attorneys (12 awards, $3.8 million), the Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (13 awards, $278 thousand), the Naval Supply Systems Command (5 awards, $452 thousand), and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (3 awards, $754 thousand). When ranked by potential value, DOJ offices dominate even more sharply — the U.S. Attorney's Offices and Executive Office for US Attorneys together represent approximately 84% of the vendor's combined potential value across all awards. The Navy and USPTO work is materially smaller and episodic.

Lipka.com holds four active Indefinite Delivery Contracts, all awarded in 2025 under Total Small Business set-asides to support deposition and grand jury court reporting at U.S. Attorney's Offices locations: a $1.594 million single-award IDC for the Southern District of New York through July 31, 2030; a $653 thousand single-award IDC for the District of Columbia through June 30, 2030; a $611 thousand single-award IDC for the District of Columbia (deposition stenographer services) through August 31, 2030; and a $490 thousand multiple-award IDC for general deposition court reporting services through March 31, 2028. These four vehicles anchor the vendor's federal footprint and have generated delivery orders totaling $118 thousand to $156 thousand each since their award. The vendor also operates under several older IDCs with DOJ and Navy agencies, including a legacy $768 thousand IDC with DOJ for nationwide deposition services and multiple smaller Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery IDCs.

Activity has remained stable at five to seven awards per year over the past five years, with no directional growth or decline. The combined potential value across all 84 prime awards is $14.5 million, of which $3.1 million has been obligated. Recompete exposure is modest: five awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $422 thousand. The vendor's work spans 74 awards under NAICS 561492 (Court Reporting and Stenotype Services) and is almost entirely court reporting and stenography (71 awards under PSC Support-Administrative: Court Reporting), with secondary exposure in expert witness support (6 awards) and legal services (4 awards). Personnel supporting federal contracts maintain security clearances ranging from Tier 4 High Risk Public Trust through Top Secret, as required for access to court proceedings and grand jury materials. The company has maintained continuous federal registration since 2005 and operates performance locations in Washington DC, New York City, Boston, Los Angeles, and New Orleans.
