The ANC Advantage
The ANC Advantage
As an Alaska Native Corporation (ANC) 8(a) Vista Defense can help government customers establish a sole-source contract vehicle up to $100 million. We work with you directly to develop an effective and efficient solution on YOUR terms rather than having your program disrupted by low-price/technically-acceptable competition. Our process:
- Brings certainty and predictability to incumbent contract employees
- Reduces contract award time frame
- Reduces workload on customer resources
- Meets small business and socioeconomic goals
- Cannot be protested
Step 1: Decision is made to issue a Direct Award to Vista Defense
Step 2: Intent to Award letter with PWS is sent to Vista Defense’s SBA representative
Step 3: SBA reviews and makes determination that Vista Defense is capable of execution
Step 4: SBA sends letter of acceptance to Contracting Officer (CO) and Specialist
Step 5: CO informs Vista Defense and agency that they may enter into negotiations
Step 6: Once mutually acceptable terms are agreed upon, contract is awarded
