Why use an ANC 8(a) Hubzone Company?
The answer is to use the added benefits of contracting directly with an innovative Alaskan Native Corporation (ANC). Many government-contracting organizations are not familiar with the ease of which an engagement can be entered into and what advantages are available under the 8(a) ANC program. When an ANC is used by a government entity, they shorten the procurement cycle, add benefits otherwise not available to the ANC and deliver the absolutely highest quality-lowest cost to the government.
As an ANC, KICD qualifies for SOLE-SOURCE, 8(a) contract procurements that can exceed the normal 8(a) $3 million threshold. Also, as an ANC, there are NO GEOGRAPHICAL PREFERENCES, and an award made to an ANC is NON- PROTESTABLE, which has been proven to be an extremely effective tool for Contracting Officers and Federal Agencies that have a need or desire to expedite critical projects.
KICD is granted a 10% PRICE PREFERENCE in full and open competition as an ANC 8(a) and an additional 10% PRICE PREFERENCE with it's HUBZone status. The HUBZone Empowerment Contracting program provides Federal Government contracting opportunities for qualified small businesses located in distressed areas.
KICD also has the ability to negotiate SOLE-SOURCE contracts and participate in competition, which is limited to HUBZone firms.
