Lime Creek Associates Inc.

Lime Creek Associates Inc., a minority-owned, woman-owned, and economically disadvantaged woman-owned small business based in Springfield, Missouri, provides substance use disorder treatment, mental health counseling, and sex offender rehabilitation services to the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-aside and full-and-open indefinite delivery vehicles. The company operates with 100% of its award footprint concentrated on Bureau of Prisons work and carries no subcontract relationships.

Lime Creek's customer base is entirely singular: the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Central Office accounts for all 41 awards in the recent portfolio, totaling $26.5 million in combined potential value. This extreme concentration reflects a specialized vendor model built entirely around one customer. The company holds five active parent indefinite delivery contracts with the Bureau of Prisons, including two large single-award IDIQs recently awarded — a $5.6 million ceiling IDC for Dallas substance use and mental health services (awarded September 1, 2026, running through August 31, 2031 under total small business set-aside) and a $5.2 million IDC for Houston treatment services (awarded May 1, 2025, running through April 30, 2030 under total small business set-aside). Older parent vehicles include IDC 15BCTS21D00000612 (13 task orders, $2.1 million combined value), IDC 15BCTS21D00000628 (12 task orders, $1.8 million combined value), and IDC 15BCTS23D00000015 (5 task orders, $3 million combined value). Work is performed at contractor-proposed community-based outpatient treatment facilities across multiple Bureau of Prisons locations: Dallas, Houston, Baton Rouge, Brownsville, and Springfield, serving incarcerated and re-entry populations. Services include intake assessments, individual and group counseling, psychiatric evaluations, medication-assisted treatment monitoring, cognitive behavioral therapy, and crisis intervention.

Recent representative awards include a $930,178.70 delivery order for Dallas substance use and mental health services (October 1, 2026, completion August 31, 2027, total small business set-aside), a $617,475 delivery order for Baton Rouge clinical and rehabilitation services (October 1, 2026, completion September 30, 2027, total small business set-aside), and a $547,340 delivery order for Houston treatment services (October 1, 2026, completion April 30, 2027, total small business set-aside). The vendor also executes full-and-open delivery orders; for example, a $374,360 firm fixed-price delivery order for Springfield clinical and treatment services was awarded December 1, 2024, with completion by November 30, 2025.

Activity has remained flat to slightly declining, averaging five to nine awards per year across 2022–2026, with eight awards in the current year. Eight awards (combined potential value $2.8 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure in that window. Combined dollars obligated across all awards represent $3.5 million, or roughly 13% of the $26.5 million combined potential value, indicating significant unexercised task-order capacity under the active IDCs. Lime Creek's work is classified under NAICS 621420 (Outpatient Mental Health and Substance Abuse Centers) and PSC Social–Social Rehabilitation across all 41 awards.
