8(a) Sole
Source ANC Contracting

As an Alaska Native Corporation (ANC), we offer a unique, flexible, and streamlined sole source procurement option to our Government customers. Sole source contracting with KG provides the Government with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) and Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) provisions methods to maximize performance flexibility, mission continuity, and small business goal achievement. Advantages of this option include:

  • A significantly accelerated procurement timeline, without the disruptions and delays resulting from complex evaluations and resulting protests
  • Subcontracts awarded to an ANC or Indian tribe shall be counted towards the subcontracting goals for small business and small disadvantaged business (SDB) concerns, regardless of the size or SBA certification status of the ANC or Indian tribe. FAR 19.703 (c)(1)(i)
  • Flexibility and reliability through direct negotiations per 13 CFR 124.503, competitive threshold exemptions per 48 CFR 19.805-1
  • Elimination of pre-award schedule risk due to the non-protestable nature of ANC sole source procurements per 13 CFR 124.517
  • ANCs – unlike other 8(a) companies – provide the Government with a virtually unlimited sole source ceiling per 48 CFR 6.303-1

The Government may award sole source contracts to ANC 8(a) companies up to $100M without Justification and Approval (J&A) and more than $100M with J&A, offering an unlimited threshold.
