One way is to define a "my-Springer-LNCS" class and add it to
org-latex-classes.

Here is an example that meets the preamble format required by the
journal PLOS One.  In the PLOS One requirement, author edits to the
preamble are restricted to the space between the ** EDIT HERE **
comments.  So, for this style, you'd just add your LaTeX code between
the ** EDIT HERE ** comments.

    (add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
                 '("plos-devel"
                   "\\documentclass[10pt]{article}
    [NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
    [PACKAGES]
    [EXTRA]
    \\doublespacing
    % Text layout
    \\topmargin 0.0cm
    \\oddsidemargin 0.5cm
    \\evensidemargin 0.5cm
    \\textwidth 16cm 
    \\textheight 21cm
    \\bibliographystyle{plos2009}
    \\makeatletter
    \\renewcommand{\\@biblabel}[1]{\\quad#1.}
    \\makeatother
    \\pagestyle{myheadings}
    %% ** EDIT HERE **
    \\DeclareCaptionLabelFormat{si}{#1S#2}    
    
    %% ** EDIT HERE **
    %% PLEASE INCLUDE ALL MACROS BELOW
    %% \\newcommand{\\texttwosuperior}{$^{2}$}
    %% \\newcommand{\\textpm}{$\\pm$}
    \\newcommand{\\rc}{$^{14}C$}
    %% END MACROS SECTION"
                     ("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
                     ("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
                     ("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}")
                     ("\\paragraph{%s}" . "\\paragraph*{%s}")
                     ("\\subparagraph{%s}" . "\\subparagraph*{%s}")))

hth,
