Mcgraw Hill LLC

McGraw Hill LLC, doing business as Sweets, is a for-profit educational publisher headquartered in New York that supplies K–12 and higher-education curriculum materials, digital learning platforms, and subscription-based content directly to federal agencies as a prime contractor in open-market procurements with no set-aside designations. The vendor competes entirely as a prime (100% of recent awards) and operates without subcontractor engagement, delivering published curriculum, textbooks, digital platforms, and online subscriptions across multiple academic disciplines and grade levels.

McGraw Hill's federal footprint centers on the Department of Defense Education Activity, which accounts for 309 awards and $102.3 million of the vendor's combined $123.7 million in potential value across 421 recent awards—representing 73% of all DoDEA dollars captured in the source. The vendor's three largest IDVs with DoDEA are a $43.8 million single-award contract (July 2023–July 2033) for K–5 mathematics and strategic intervention resources, a $3.3 million single-award contract (April 2024–April 2029) for Advanced Placement humanities curriculum, and a $1.2 million single-award contract (June 2022–April 2026) for general student instructional resources. Representative delivery orders include a $1.07 billion August 2023 order for K–5 core mathematics and strategic intervention resources, a $656 thousand June 2022 order for secondary social studies materials, and a $1.22 million June 2024 order for secondary humanities instructional resources. The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center ranks second by potential value ($16.3 million across 2 awards), driven by a $8.76 million sole-source purchase order (September 2025–September 2027, one year base plus four one-year option periods) for a Clinical Healthcare Point of Care Access Suite subscription covering eight medical specialties. The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Education represents the third-largest customer set (48 awards, $2 million potential value), procuring curriculum licenses, reading intervention programs, science materials, and achievement software for tribal schools. Defense Health Agency (7 awards, $1.2 million), the Army Corps of Engineers (2 awards, $411 thousand), and the Justice Management Division (7 awards, $99 thousand) round out the top five customers.

McGraw Hill holds five named parent contract vehicles across DoDEA: the $43.8 million K–5 mathematics IDC (224 task orders issued between August 2023 and October 2025), the $3.3 million Advanced Placement humanities IDC (eighteen task orders), the $1.2 million general student instructional resources IDC (15 task orders), a $240 thousand Defense Health Agency medical education e-learning platform IDC (October 2025–March 2030), and a $157 thousand DoDEA AP Biology and AP Chemistry IDC (July 2025–June 2030). The largest single delivery order under the K–5 mathematics IDC reached $8.5 million in August 2023; subsequent orders range from sub-$2,000 school-specific purchases (single classroom math materials for individual DoDEA elementary schools) to six-figure bundles for secondary curriculum resources and school-wide deployments.

Recent activity has remained stable, with 23 awards in 2022, 27 in 2023, 17 in 2024, and 26 in 2025, averaging roughly 19 awards annually over the past five years. Ten awards with combined potential value of $10.6 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, exposing McGraw Hill to recompete action in that window. SCI-reported invoiced revenue totaled $2.7 million (FY2023–FY2025), with $1.7 million invoiced in FY2025 and no FTE data captured in the Service Contract Inventory dataset, indicating McGraw Hill's federal work consists predominantly of product purchases (textbooks, digital subscriptions, curriculum licenses) rather than labor-intensive service contracts. Government-paid rates derived from the SCI dataset show a median of $52,244.50 per hour, reflecting subscription and license structures rather than hourly labor pricing. The vendor operates entirely without subcontractor engagement across SCI-reported prime contracts, delivering its own published and digital content directly to customer agencies. McGraw Hill's customer concentration sits with DoDEA's education mission (73% of potential value), with secondary concentration in medical and higher-education subscription content for defense and veterans health agencies. The vendor's award mix is dominated by Books and Pamphlets (351 awards, 83% of recent work), with supplemental presence in software publishers and educational support services. All awards carry firm fixed-price terms and no set-aside designations, positioning McGraw Hill as a commercial publisher competing on capability and established relationships rather than on small-business status or socioeconomic set-asides.
