ABOUT NACA
NACA exists for Tribes, Alaska Native Corporations (ANCs), and Native Hawaiian Organizations (NHOs) to collaboratively protect our contracting rights and access to business development through advocacy and education. Doing business with the federal government via the 8(a) program has become an effective, transformative, and powerful economic development opportunity for Native communities. Some examples of how participation in the 8(a) program enables impactful investment in Native communities include:
NACA’s unique membership is a unifying voice and an exceptional example of cooperation within Indian Country. Its Board of Directors ensures that our members and Native 8(a) businesses are represented in policy and legislative matters aligning with NACA's mission. WORKING TOGETHER NACA members and other Native communities have established strong small businesses and qualified 8(a) companies that are bringing efficiency and effectiveness to many federal agencies through the goods and services they provide. With strong advocacy and education, NACA will continue to work with our membership, federal agencies, Congress, and allies to proactively and aggressively make federal contracting opportunities available to qualified Native businesses. At this time, one of the most effective ways to expand contracting opportunities for qualified Native businesses is federal policy change. Federal policies must encourage - even require - the removal of key regulatory and procedural barriers that stand in the way of self-determination for all Native communities. By removing these obstacles, qualified Native businesses can compete more effectively and for a larger share of federal contracts. Making these changes is a win-win for the federal government and Native communities alike. The federal government will receive expanded products and services from exceptional, qualified Native businesses, and Native communities will benefit from increased economic opportunities and positive outcomes.
