National Indian Gaming Commission

The Department of the Interior National Indian Gaming Commission, a civilian sub-agency within Interior, administers federal regulatory and operational oversight of Indian gaming enterprises and funds compliance, technology infrastructure, and administrative support contracts to execute that mission. The Commission has awarded 175 federal contracts totaling $21.8 million in potential value since 2005, with $14.3 million obligated to date.

Recent contract activity has accelerated modestly. The Commission issued 4 awards in 2022, 5 in 2023, 9 in 2024, 10 in 2025, and 5 year-to-date in 2026, with the most recently recorded award dated November 1, 2026. The contracting footprint spans 121 distinct prime contractors, though concentration among the top performers is moderate. By recent award count, the top five primes—Redhawk IT Solutions LLC (4 awards, $147 thousand), Minburn Technology Group LLC (3 awards, $1.1 million), JDI Ventures LLC (3 awards, $378 thousand), Software Information Resource Corp. (3 awards, $180 thousand), and Kinaras Solutions Inc. (2 awards, $1.4 million)—account for 45 percent of recent awards. By potential value over the same window, the distribution shifts: Cyber Technology Innovations LLC leads with a single $3.8 million award, followed by CGI Federal Inc. ($2.6 million in one award), Kinaras Solutions ($1.4 million across two awards), New TECH Solutions Inc. ($1.4 million), and Minburn Technology ($1.1 million across three awards), collectively representing 47 percent of recent combined potential value. This split reflects a mix of high-volume small vendors and occasional large-value incumbents, indicating a moderately concentrated but fragmented competitive base.

Set-aside activity is minimal across the portfolio. Seventy-eight percent of awards carry no set-aside designation; small-business set-asides account for 13 percent (23 awards), service-disabled veteran-owned small business designations for 5 percent (8 awards), and 8(a) sole-source awards for 4 percent (7 awards). The remainder consists of a single award reserved for small business.

No recent federal contract opportunities are recorded against the Commission in the available digest. No grant activity or grant opportunities are present in the source material.

The National Indian Gaming Commission is a regulatory body that oversees some aspects of gaming on Indian lands, often complementing the work of Indian regulators.
