The work will be performed in Woodlawn, Maryland, and follows federal acquisition regulations governing time-and-material orders. The contract aims to leverage existing contractual arrangements to expedite support for SSA’s IT needs without competition beyond the designated contractor. Oversight and communication will be managed by designated SSA officials based in Baltimore, Maryland, including the Contracting Officer, Melissa A. Kloman, and Division Director, Syreeta Gay. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 541519, related to computer-related services, indicating a focus on specialized information technology support activities crucial to the administration’s planning and analysis functions.
