- Summary:
- Tribal firms--those owned by Alaska Native Corporations, Native Hawaiian Organizations, and Indian tribes--are afforded special advantages within the Small Business Administration's (SBA) 8(a) business development program. This book identifies trends in government 8(a) contracting with tribal firms; determines why the government awarded sole-source contracts to tribal 8(a) firms and the methods used to make price determinations; assesses the procuring agencies' oversight of contracts for compliance with subcontracting requirements; and examines SBA's new 8(a) regulation, intended to clarify program rules, to determine how the changes could affect oversight of tribal 8(a) firms.
