Benefits of Doing Business with an Alaska Native Corporation (ANC)
Congress and regulators encourage government procurement organizations to utilize the type of procurement process granted to ANCs. Alaska Native Corporations and Tribal-owned 8(a) firms are eligible to receive contracts that are advantageous to our clients. Because of our status, you benefit from:
• |
|
Expedited sole-source federal government procurements |
| |
|
|
• |
|
Contracts of unlimited dollar value, versus the typical $3M limit for sole source professional services contracts |
| |
|
|
• |
|
Non-protestable awards |
| |
|
|
• |
|
Open discussion between the government and the ANC during all phases of the procurement |
| |
|

More ways in which ANC-ownership helps SAGE meet your needs:
• |
