Introduction -- 8(a) policies and Native American companies -- Quantitative analysis of recent contracts for native groups -- Findings from qualitative analyses -- Findings and recommendations -- Appendix A. Public Law 111-84, Section 811: Justification and Approval of Sole-Source Contracts -- Appendix B. Congressional Request for a Study of the Effects of J & A Provisions -- Appendix C. Selected Dates in the Evolution of Small Business Policy -- Appendix D. Variation in 8(a) Requirements, by Type of Business -- Appendix E. Provision and Incentives for DoD to Outsource Directly to Native American-Owned Firms -- Appendix F. Numbers of Contracts, by Year -- Appendix G. Interview Protocol.
Some participants in the federal 8(a) Business Development Program, including Alaska Native Corporations, Indian tribes, and Native Hawaiian Organizations, face no limit on the value of sole-source contracts they can receive. Concerns over the rising number of these contracts led to requirements for justification and approval of contracts above $20 million. This raised other concerns regarding the effects of the new requirements on Native American-owned firms and contracting personnel. The new federal requirement may delay the award of these contracts but have little impact on the number of such contracts awarded.
