S.j. Bashen, Inc.

S.J. Bashen, Inc., doing business as Bashen Corporation, is a woman-owned, minority-owned small business based in Houston, Texas that provides Equal Employment Opportunity investigation, compliance consulting, and human resources support services to federal agencies as a prime contractor across the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule and numerous agency-specific Blanket Purchase Agreements. The company holds certifications as a self-certified small disadvantaged business, economically disadvantaged women-owned small business, and black American-owned enterprise, competing across both set-aside and full-and-open vehicles with strong representation in total small business set-asides.

Bashen Corporation's capability portfolio centers on impartial EEO complaint investigations, counseling, training, barrier analysis, workplace climate assessments, final agency decision documentation, harassment investigations, and alternative dispute resolution services. Representative work includes a $2.16 million delivery order from the Export-Import Bank of the United States for EEO support services through September 2031, a $1.18 million delivery order from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for EEO specialist support to its Office of Minority and Women Inclusion through June 2027, a $4.23 million delivery order from the Department of Homeland Security Civil Rights Center of Litigation for investigation and counseling support through April 2026, and a $522 thousand delivery order from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for EEO training through September 2029.

Customer concentration is pronounced. The Transportation Security Administration dominates both award volume and dollars, accounting for 99 awards with $33.2 million in combined potential value across a $16 million multiple-award BPA established in September 2021. Customs and Border Protection holds a separate $12.2 million multiple-award BPA with three awards carrying $12.7 million combined potential value. The GSA Federal Acquisition Service and Export-Import Bank of the United States together anchor $20.1 million in potential value. The top five customers by potential value account for 66 percent of the combined total. NASA Headquarters places significant volume (52 awards, $3.7 million), driven by small individual EEO investigation calls, while the Department of the Interior's US Geological Survey issues high call velocity (28 awards, $1.4 million combined value) across a $1.25 million single-award woman-owned small business set-aside BPA. The vendor serves 53 distinct federal agencies.

Bashen holds vehicle positions across the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (379 task orders, $93.9 million combined potential value), with additional named IDVs including a $16 million TSA BPA for EEO services, a $12.2 million CBP multiple-award BPA, a $8 million GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract, a $7.5 million Export-Import Bank multiple-award BPA established October 2025, a $4 million CDC Pittsburgh harassment investigation and climate survey BPA, a $3.73 million Office of the Inspector General multiple-award BPA for EEO compliance services, a $2.75 million Treasury Department single-award BPA for EEO services, a $1.25 million Department of Interior single-award woman-owned small business BPA, and a $1 million Health Resources and Services Administration single-award BPA for administrative investigations (terminated for convenience February 26, 2025). The Federal Supply Schedule and BPA vehicles collectively support ordering across civilian agencies.

Activity has grown year-over-year from ten awards in 2022 to twenty-nine in 2025, with ten awards recorded in 2026 through mid-July. The recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months involves sixteen awards with combined potential value of $2.3 million, representing modest near-term exposure. NAICS 561611 (Investigation and Personal Background Check Services) accounts for 343 of 356 total awards, reflecting the vendor's dominant positioning in federal EEO investigation and compliance work. Bashen operates entirely as a prime contractor (100 percent of awards) with no subcontractor role in the source data, building delivery teams in-house rather than leveraging subs. SCI-reported invoiced revenue grew from $365 thousand in FY2022 to $651 thousand in FY2024 across 2.1 FTEs on federal service contracts above the reporting threshold; the SCI dataset shows median government-paid rates around $139.94 per hour, with senior labor pricing through $158.39 per hour. The vendor's federal services contracting is capturing a slice of a broader enterprise footprint; SCI dollars represent service contracts above $150 thousand threshold only and exclude goods, classified work, and non-federal revenue. No sub-engagement is reported across SCI-reportable prime contracts.
