Lawdensky Construction Company Incorporated

Lawdensky Construction Company Incorporated, a family-owned for-profit construction firm based in Schaumburg, Illinois, operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering facility repair, alteration, and construction services to civilian federal agencies across the Midwest and nationwide, with a dominant footprint in GSA Public Buildings Service Region 5 work carried out under total small business set-asides.

Lawdensky's capability portfolio centers on building-systems and facility infrastructure work: HVAC replacement and mechanical systems upgrades, electrical work including lighting upgrades and switchgear replacement, plumbing and piping systems, fire-protection systems, roof and water-damage repair, exterior and interior renovations, security upgrades including access-control and ballistic-glass installations, and asbestos and lead-based-paint abatement. Recent representative work includes a $3.26 million Delivery Order from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (issued September 2023, ultimate completion August 2026) for physical security upgrades at the Federal Building at 536 South Clark Street in Chicago; a $1.215 million GSA delivery order (August 2025) for mechanical piping upgrades at the John C. Kluczynski Federal Building; a $996,900 GSA delivery order (September 2026) for mechanical systems and building component replacement at the Robert W. Kastenmeier Courthouse in Madison, Wisconsin; and a $764,930 delivery order (April 2026) for exterior perimeter lighting upgrades at the Roszkowski Courthouse in Rockford, Illinois.

Customer concentration is steep and stable. The top five agencies account for 91% of combined potential value across all 161 prime awards. GSA Public Buildings Service Region 5 dominates both by award count (49 awards, $152.2 million combined potential value) and by dollars, followed at significant distance by the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Southwestern Region (11 awards, $79.9 million), FAA Headquarters (27 awards, $36.6 million), FAA Great Lakes Region (12 awards, $5.9 million), and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (12 awards, $1.4 million). The GSA R5 footprint spans Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Work for FAA includes both on-airport Air Route Surveillance Radar facility repairs and off-airport unstaffed infrastructure sustainment across geographically distributed locations.

Lawdensky's primary parent vehicle is the GSA R5 Regional Construction IDIQ, a $50 million total small business set-aside awarded to Lawdensky on September 27, 2024, with a one-year base period and four one-year options running through November 2026. Under this IDIQ alone, Lawdensky has issued nine task orders carrying $4.1 million in combined potential value. The vendor also holds multiple FAA-related IDIQs: Indefinite Delivery Contract DTFAWA12D00038 (18 task orders, $48.1 million combined potential value), GS05P11FBD0026 (26 task orders, $7.4 million), 47PF0019D0031 (29 task orders, $7 million), and 47PF0018D0070 (19 task orders, $8.6 million). These vehicles span facility maintenance, repair, and construction across multiple FAA regions and the Midwest GSA footprint.

Activity has contracted recently after sustained growth. Lawdensky awarded itself 12 contracts in 2022, declining to 9 in 2023, 6 in 2024, and 5 in 2025, then rebounding to 12 in 2026. The recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months exposes only 11 awards (combined potential value $4.9 million) to completion and recompete—a modest exposure relative to the $305.2 million combined potential value across all 161 awards. However, the steep drop in award activity 2023–2025 signals either narrower pursuit or tighter customer budgets in that window; the 2026 rebound may indicate pipeline recovery or reflects awards already in execution.

Lawdensky operates 100% as a prime contractor with no subcontract awards in the source data. SCI-reported invoicing across FY2022–FY2025 totals $5 million, concentrated in FY2025 at $3 million invoiced across 7.6 FTEs—a sharp scale-up from FY2024's $444 thousand across 0.3 FTEs. On SCI-reportable prime contracts, median government-paid rates run around $950/hr, with 10th-percentile rates at $255.19/hr and 90th-percentile rates at $1,378/hr, indicating mixed labor-category utilization across technicians, supervisors, and project management. Across SCI prime records, subcontracting depth averages only 2% of contractor hours, with one named subcontractor reported, reflecting a strongly integrated delivery model where Lawdensky executes most work with its own staff.

The category concentration reflects Lawdensky's facility-repair specialization: 118 of 161 awards fall under NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with secondary work in engineering services (19 awards) and specialized trades such as HVAC (5 awards) and painting (4 awards). Top PSC codes align with the award data—94 awards for repair or alteration of office buildings dominate, followed by maintenance of air-traffic-control towers (12 awards), maintenance of radar and navigational facilities (7 awards), and construction of other airfield structures (6 awards).

Lawdensky competes predominantly under total small business set-asides on its GSA and federal civilian-agency work, with full-and-open competition on FAA-Franchise Acquisition Services contracts. The vendor demonstrates proven execution across a 161-award footprint since 2011, with cumulative obligated dollars of $71 million against $305.2 million potential value (23% obligation rate), indicating substantial unexercised IDIQ ceiling capacity and a backlog of awarded but not-yet-invoiced work in flight.
