Lee Hitchcock Lacy

Lee Hitchcock Lacy is a self-certified small disadvantaged and woman-owned business located in Arlington, Virginia, specializing in professional training and career counseling services. As a sole proprietorship, the firm primarily provides consulting services to federal agencies, with a concentrated focus on supporting the U.S. Department of State's Foreign Service Institute (FSI). The company has established itself as a critical provider of specialized counseling and professional development support, particularly for junior diplomatic personnel through the Junior Officers Seminar and Training Program (JSTP).

The federal contract awards for Lee Hitchcock Lacy are exclusively focused on career counseling and training services, predominantly with the Foreign Service Institute. These services include retirement planning seminars, job search initiatives, and professional development support for Department of State personnel. The contract awards are consistently structured as firm fixed-price Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) calls, typically ranging from $10,000 to $13,000 per engagement. While most recent awards have not utilized specific set-aside designations, the original BPA solicitation was a total small business set-aside. The contracts are typically short-term, with performance periods ranging from one to three months, and are consistently performed on-site at the Foreign Service Institute's Arlington, Virginia location.

Lee Hitchcock Lacy holds two significant federal contract Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDV) vehicles, both multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreements with the Foreign Service Institute. The first BPA, awarded on December 28, 2022, has a potential value of $200,000, while the second has a total potential value of $215,493.12, with an ultimate completion date of December 27, 2027. These IDVs facilitate the procurement of specialized training and career counseling services, primarily supporting the Junior Officers Seminar and Training Program. Under these BPAs, the Foreign Service Institute has issued multiple task orders, enabling Lee Hitchcock Lacy to provide on-site counseling services through firm fixed-price task orders. The IDVs represent a strategic procurement mechanism for the Department of State to access professional development and counseling expertise for its diplomatic personnel.
