LSG Educational Services LLC

LSG Educational Services LLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, delivers specialized therapeutic and educational support services to Bureau of Indian Education schools as a prime contractor, with all 61 recent awards going directly to the vendor and none routed through subcontractor relationships. The company operates exclusively under small-business set-asides — predominantly Total Small Business designations — and competes in the therapeutic-services market serving Native American student populations across the Southwest.

LSG's customer base is narrowly concentrated on a single federal customer. The Bureau of Indian Education's Office of Indian Education accounts for 57 awards (93% of the portfolio) with $16.3 million in combined potential value, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs Navajo Region accounts for 4 awards carrying $114,000. The vendor has no work with any other federal agencies. This concentration creates both stability — a deep, multi-year relationship with a single contracting entity — and risk, as the entire portfolio depends on BIE contracting appetite and budget continuity.

Capability work centers on occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech and language pathology, psychological evaluation, and behavioral intervention services delivered to special education students at BIE-operated schools in New Mexico and the Navajo Nation. Recent named contracts include a $1.34 million purchase order awarded in September 2024 for comprehensive on-site educational and therapeutic services (occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech and language pathology, psychological evaluations, and diagnostic services) to Wingate Elementary School through September 2029; a $1.26 million purchase order awarded in August 2024 for multiple services (speech therapy, occupational therapy, school counseling, and psychological evaluations and re-evaluations) to Wingate High School through July 2029; and a $1.26 million purchase order awarded in August 2024 for multiple educational services (occupational therapy, physical therapy, diagnostic and psychological services, and behavioral services) to Baca Dlo'Ay Azhi Community School through July 2029. The vendor also holds a single-award blanket purchase agreement with the Bureau of Indian Education, valued at $219,984, for occupational therapy services to 12 Bureau-funded schools in Crownpoint, New Mexico.

Activity shows volatility year over year: 13 awards in 2022, a drop to 3 in 2023, a spike to 16 in 2024, then 6 in 2025 and 3 in 2026 to date. Eleven awards (combined potential value $1.1 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete. The vendor's top three NAICS categories are offices of physical, occupational, and speech therapists and audiologists (37 awards), educational support services (14 awards), and offices of mental health practitioners (6 awards), reflecting the core therapeutic portfolio.

SCI-reported invoicing of $1.6 million across FY2022 and FY2024 (no reported invoicing in FY2023) shows modest federal services-contract activity above the $150,000 threshold; the dataset reflects roughly 2.4 FTEs delivered to the federal government in each of those fiscal years. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $87/hr, with senior labor pricing through roughly $212/hr and entry-level work at approximately $60/hr. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, the vendor performs 100% of contractor hours internally with no subcontractor engagement — LSG builds its own delivery teams entirely and does not rely on downstream subs.

The vendor's awards are predominantly firm fixed-price or labor-hour purchase orders to individual BIE schools, with contract periods typically running three to five years and pricing structured on hourly rates for therapeutic service delivery, per Service Contract Act wage determinations for New Mexico. All work is performed on-site at individual Bureau-funded schools across New Mexico and the Navajo Nation, supporting the BIE's special education mission for Native American students with disabilities.
