Learn about SBA resources and certification programs to help your small business successfully identify and compete for federal contract opportunities.

October’s seminar includes guest speaker Barbara Bonnette, Supervisory Contracting Officer with the Indian Health Service presenting on Acquisitions and the Buy Indian Act. The Indian Health Service (IHS) mission is to raise the physical, mental, social, and spiritual health of American Indians and Alaska Natives to the highest level. IHS, an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, is responsible for providing federal health services to American Indians and Alaska Natives. IHS has drafted a policy that ensures that the Buy Indian Act of 1910 is now being maximized to the fullest extent allowed. Increasing the number of acquisition actions awarded under the Act will strengthen IHS’ commitment to its mission as well as foster Indian employment and economic development in Indian Country. The Buy Indian Act Briefing will ensure all firms are more aware of the importance of the Act and how it fits in the Set-Aside Order of Precedence for Supplies and Services within the Indian Health Services Programs.
