About Cherokee Nation Aerospace And Defense, L.L.C.

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Cherokee Nation Aerospace And Defense, L.L.C., a tribally owned SBA 8(a) and HUBZone certified small business based in Huntsville, Alabama, operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering facilities support services, infrastructure maintenance, and specialized renovation work to the Department of Defense Missile Defense Agency. The company is a child entity of Cherokee Nation Businesses LLC, a tribally owned parent holding Indian Economic Enterprise and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise designations. Cherokee Nation Aerospace And Defense competes predominantly full-and-open (no set-aside used on 29 of 31 prime awards), with one 8(a) Sole Source award on file; its federal footprint reflects a narrowly concentrated customer base and capability portfolio anchored to facility operations rather than aerospace manufacturing despite its name framing.

Customer concentration is absolute and creates structural dependency: the Missile Defense Agency accounts for 30 of 31 awards (97% of the $37.2 million combined potential value), with the remaining award, valued at $1.3 million, held by the Department of the Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command. The vendor holds a single parent vehicle relationship: an Indefinite Delivery Contract (HQ0147-19-D-5000, the Global Facilities and Procurement Services vehicle established in 2019) anchors 27 task orders carrying $15.8 million in combined potential value. A newly awarded SHIELD (Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense) multiple-award IDIQ, issued December 29, 2025, carries a $151 billion ceiling but opened with a single $500 delivery order, indicating early-stage vehicle engagement. Representative work includes a $1.04 million firm fixed-price delivery order for Naval Base Guam Administration Building 2 renovations (awarded March 27, 2024, completed August 31, 2024), a $564,585 emergency waterproofing and roof repair project at Fort Greely, Alaska (July 25, 2023), and a $473,019 8(a) Sole Source refurbishment of Buildings 5810 and 5811 at Fort Bliss, Texas (August 9, 2023). The category concentration spans Facilities Support Services (28 awards), Housekeeping and Facilities Operations Support (18 awards by PSC), and Maintenance of Office Buildings (6 awards); two awards align to R&D in physical and engineering sciences, signaling limited diversification beyond infrastructure operations.

Activity has fluctuated: four awards in 2021, one in 2022, five in 2023, three in 2024, and two in 2025, with no trajectory of sustained growth and thirteen awards (combined potential value $13.2 million) reaching ultimate completion between now and late 2024, creating recompete exposure concentrated within the single MDA relationship. The vendor holds no subcontract awards in the source data and operates with zero sub-award footprint. The vendor's own award descriptions reference diverse capabilities — "aerospace manufacturing, logistics, and facility services" — but the realized award history shows facilities maintenance and renovation labor delivery, primarily at MDA locations across Fort Bliss, Fort Greely, Kekaha (Hawaii), and Stilwell (Oklahoma), with no prime contract evidence of aerospace component manufacturing or design work.
