Lentech, Inc.

Lentech, Inc., a minority-owned small disadvantaged business and Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, delivers government time and attendance software licensing, data archiving, and IT infrastructure services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (75% of recent awards) and increasingly as a subcontractor on space and NASA programs. The vendor competes predominantly full-and-open on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, with no set-aside posture across its prime footprint; recent awards carry no set-aside designations.

The core capability portfolio centers on cloud-based Government Time and Attendance (GOVTA) and Web-based Time and Attendance (WEBTA) software licensing, maintenance, implementation, and data archiving across civilian federal agencies. Representative prime work includes a $42 million five-year delivery order with the Social Security Administration (awarded July 2024) for GOVTA software, implementation services, and WEBTA 4.1 support through December 2029; an $8.66 million four-year delivery order with the Department of Labor's Human Resources Center (May 2024) for WEBTA/GOVTA time and attendance services; a $14.1 million five-year Justice Management Division contract (October 2023) for UKG GOVTA licensing and maintenance; and a $1.88 million USDA delivery order (September 2024) for renewal of 78,200 and 4,000 GOVTA licenses. Lentech also holds a single-award $14.6 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Treasury Department's Bureau of the Fiscal Service through March 2028 for UKG GOVTA cloud-based software, upgrades, maintenance, and training, with three calls issued totaling $5.3 million. Secondary capability involves automation station software, multi-factor authentication for GOVTA infrastructure, and government retirement and benefits platform hosting. On the GSA Schedule, Lentech offers 55 labor categories spanning project administration through senior systems engineering at hourly rates from $64.66 to $290.24, with no security-cleared roles; median government-paid rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts ran around $414.60/hr.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward civilian administrative IT. The Department of Agriculture Office of the Chief Financial Officer leads by award count (27 awards, $7.7 million combined potential value), driven by renewal and maintenance calls across GOVTA and WEBTA systems. By dollar value, the Social Security Administration anchors the portfolio with a single $42 million award, followed by Treasury ($19.9 million across four awards), Department of Labor ($19.4 million across two awards), and Department of Justice offices ($19.3–14.9 million across five awards). NASA Goddard Space Center appears as the second-largest customer by award count (14 awards) but carries no dollar value in the prime-award section, reflecting the subcontractor role. The top five customer agencies by combined potential value account for roughly $115 million of the $1.16 billion portfolio, but the portfolio breadth spans 26 distinct agencies, including US Patent and Trademark Office, Peace Corps, Smithsonian Institution, Department of Homeland Security, and multiple Treasury and USDA offices.

Vehicle position centers on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, which hosts 66 task orders carrying $155 million combined potential value—the primary delivery channel for Lentech's GOVTA and WEBTA licensing and renewal work. Lentech holds a multi-billion-dollar ceiling seat on the OASIS+ Total Small Business Set-Aside IDIQ awarded December 19, 2024, through December 18, 2029, across seven professional-services domains (Management and Advisory, Technical and Engineering, Research and Development, Intelligence Services, Environmental Services, Facilities, and Logistics), enabling government-wide task-order competition. Most notably, Lentech was awarded a position on the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ from the Missile Defense Agency on December 29, 2025, with a $151 billion ceiling and performance through December 28, 2035; the initial delivery order carries a nominal $500 firm fixed price with completion by December 28, 2035 and is scheduled for performance in Huntsville, Alabama. The SHIELD contract positions Lentech as a prime on a defense vehicle spanning research, development, prototyping, systems engineering, production, test and evaluation, and modernization of multi-domain defense systems. Lentech also holds a $1 billion multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement from Treasury's Bureau of the Fiscal Service through September 2029 for cloud-based time and attendance software and services.

Activity trajectory shows sustained growth. Awards per year climbed from three in 2022 to 25 in 2024, with nine awards in 2025 and seven as of June 2026 (three weeks prior to the source snapshot). The most recent award was a $36,642 delivery order from the OCIO for ArchiveTime license renewal (June 24, 2026). However, twelve awards with combined potential value of $25.9 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating moderate recompete exposure—particularly the $42 million SSA contract and several multi-million-dollar Department of Labor and Justice renewals.

On the subcontractor side, Lentech serves under CACI (NASA Consolidated Application and Platform Services—NCAPS), ASRC Federal System Solutions (program analysis and control on multiple NASA task orders), Lockheed Martin Integrated Systems (Hubble Space Telescope Mission Operations and Systems Engineering Phase II—MOSES II), Cognosante MVH (VA Time and Attendance System operations and maintenance), Columbus Technologies and Services (space flight and ground system hardware development), and Aerodyne-SGT Engineering Services (MIST II multidisciplinary engineering). The subcontractor awards span NASA Goddard Space Center work, HST operations, atmospheric science research, and space systems development—a portfolio distinct from Lentech's prime GOVTA licensing business. Across 23 sub-awards named in the source, no single prime dominates; CACI appears most frequently (three sub-award dates). SCI reporting shows zero average sub-hours share across prime contracts, indicating Lentech builds its own delivery teams rather than relying on subcontractor labor on its prime work; the sub-award activity reflects incoming flow from larger primes seeking Lentech's technical expertise on specialized programs.

SCI-reported invoicing on prime contracts totaled $16.6 million across fiscal years 2022–2024 (FY2024: $11.8 million across 4.1 FTEs; FY2023: $1.1 million across 3.0 FTEs; FY2022: $3.6 million across 1.4 FTEs). The FTE trajectory shows volatility (24.7 FTEs in FY2022, dropping to 3.0 in FY2023, rebounding to 22.4 in FY2024), reflecting the discrete nature of GOVTA and WEBTA renewal calls and the shift toward larger multi-year awards and subcontractor engagement. Lentech operates a subsidiary, Astralis Innovations, LLC, registered as a limited liability company; no material award activity under Astralis appears in the source.

The combination of a $151 billion SHIELD vehicle position, OASIS+ SB membership, a $1 billion Treasury BPA, and $42 million in flagship civilian agency contracts establishes Lentech as a specialized provider of federal time and attendance infrastructure with recent expansion into defense-oriented systems engineering and space-mission support. The vendor's full-and-open, non-set-aside posture on GSA Schedule work and its minority-owned status position it as a competitive, non-disadvantaged prime in both commercial-like (time and attendance) and emerging advanced-defense domains (SHIELD).
