Working with an 8(a)

KSI is an Alaska Native tribally-owned 8(a) Small Disadvantaged Business who offers government customers attractive and flexible contracting under the Special Rights an ANC 8(a) enjoys:

8(a) Sole Source Award – The eligibility of a Participant for a sole source or competitive 8(a) requirement may not be challenged by another Participant or any other party…13 CFR 124.517

No dollar thresholds on Sole Source SBA 8(a) contracts with an ANC; this exemption includes all type contracts… 13 CFR Section 124.506.4(b)

Indian Incentive Program – DOD and NASA prime contractors may receive a bonus payment of 5% of the subcontract cost when they subcontract to Indian-owned firms. ANCs are a qualified Indian Incentive subcontractor …FAR 52.226-1

ANC 8(a) Streamlined Federal Contracting

The SBA ANC 8(a) Contracting method avoids a long, expensive and complex procurement cycle and is significantly faster than any other means of contracting and without a contract dollar threshold.
When using the ANC 8(a) contracting method, a government customer can simply select KSI as a suggested source and request from our supporting SBA District Office that the procurement be pursued under the 8(a) program.  The often lengthy, expensive, and tedious process of justifying source selection is thereby avoided.  Because 8(a) companies may subcontract portions of the work to other firms, KSI is able to assemble a perfect team for a particular project.
