About Cherokee Nation System Solutions LLC

Cherokee Nation System Solutions LLC, a tribally owned 8(a) certified and HUBZone-designated small business subsidiary of Cherokee Nation Businesses LLC, delivers professional staffing services, IT infrastructure support, travel coordination, and specialized technical assistance to federal agencies as a prime contractor across 67 distinct customer agencies. The company competes predominantly as a prime—99% of recent awards—under 8(a) sole source and competitive set-asides, with particular concentration in Department of State staffing contracts, Department of Interior research support, and multi-agency IT services delivery.

The vendor's customer base splits between volume-driven relationships and high-dollar anchors. The Department of Interior's USGS Office of Acquisitions and Grants accounts for 131 awards ($98.5 million combined potential value) across staffing and researcher positions, while the Department of Treasury's IRS dominates dollar value with 16 awards totaling $1.09 billion, predominantly for Federal Identity, Credential, and Access Management (FICAM) and physical access control system upgrades. The Department of State's multiple bureaus—Office of the Secretary, Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs, and others—collectively anchor the company's staffing portfolio with ongoing time-and-materials delivery orders across Washington DC operations. These three agencies represent the overwhelming share of potential value; more than 130 other agencies place smaller individual orders, reflecting the vendor's broad federal penetration.

Cherokee Nation System Solutions operates across a dense portfolio of parent vehicles. The company holds single-award indefinite delivery contracts with the Department of Interior ($19 million for trust fund research and distribution), USDA ($7 million for transportation services), the Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement ($4.5 million for travel services), and the Bureau of Indian Affairs ($40 million for Justice Services support). Two large vehicles anchor the portfolio: an IDC (19AQMM20D0126) issued by State with 96 task orders ($263 million combined potential), and an IDC (140G0120D0021) with 130 task orders ($49 million combined potential). The company also holds blanket purchase agreements with the EPA Region 9 ($240 million ceiling, off-ramped October 2024), NOAA ($9.7 million for IT services through March 2027), and NOAA's cloud engineering BPA ($9.8 million through May 2027). Prime positioning on the 8(a) STARS III government-wide acquisition contract enables task-order work across civilian and defense agencies for IT, cybersecurity, and professional services.

Activity has remained steady year over year—57 to 60 awards annually from 2022 through 2024—with 21 awards in 2025 and 1 award in early 2026 reflecting a partial-year snapshot. Within the next 24 months, 51 awards (combined potential value $187.9 million) reach ultimate completion, signaling a significant recompete pipeline dominated by Department of State staffing vehicles and Department of Interior research contracts.

Service Contract Inventory data shows SCI-reportable invoicing of $41.1 million in FY2022, $74.2 million in FY2023, and $85.6 million in FY2024, with corresponding federal FTE delivery growing from 222 FTEs in FY2022 to 473 FTEs in FY2024. This two-fold growth in FTE deployment reflects scaling staffing operations across multiple State Department bureaus, Interior regional offices, and other customer agencies. Government-paid hourly rates on prime SCI contracts range from a 10th-percentile low of $38.01 per hour to a median of $74.60 per hour, with senior labor commanding up to $141.77 per hour at the 90th percentile. Across SCI-reported prime contracts, subcontractors account for 4% of total contractor hours on average; the vendor names 35 subcontractors across its prime portfolio but self-performs the substantial majority of work. Named subcontractors include Cherokee United Services LLC (8(a) subsidiary), GDH Government Services LLC (help desk and IT support), Aperture Solutions Group Inc. (ITAR and arms export control compliance), and Maven OFS JV Inc. (facilities management)—a pattern suggesting the vendor assembles capability teams for specialized compliance, IT infrastructure, and support functions while retaining direct delivery of core staffing and research services.

The vendor's primary NAICS concentrations—All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (156 awards) and Facilities Support Services (97 awards)—mask granular work streams. Award descriptions surface concrete deliverables: researcher positions (biologists, hydrologists, data specialists) supporting USGS field operations in Lafayette and Columbia, Missouri; program managers and subject matter experts for federal IT modernization and FICAM compliance; customer service and warehouse specialists for Health Infrastructure Foundation programs; professional staffing for State Department bureaus across African Affairs, Western Hemisphere Affairs, East Asian and Pacific Affairs, and space policy; and travel coordination logistics for international law enforcement and development conferences. The vendor also executes goods orders (semi-trailers, spare parts, shipping services) and specialized contracts such as a $34 million military health systems virtual health program award from the Air Force Test Center (with Cherokee United Services LLC and Mission First Solutions LLC as subs) and a $24.1 million Afghan refugee resettlement support contract from the Administration for Children and Families (with Cherokee Nation Management & Consulting LLC and Mckellar Corporation handling cultural and language services). A $36.99 million AFIMSC IT support definitive contract with Air Education and Training Command reflects defense sector penetration alongside dominant civilian-agency staffing and research work.

The 8(a) posture is central to the company's strategy. The vast majority of awards carry either 8(a) sole source or competitive 8(a) set-aside designations, expiring October 12, 2026, necessitating a recompete strategy once certification lapses. HUBZone designation provides secondary set-aside eligibility. The vendor operates as a subsidiary of Cherokee Nation Businesses LLC, a tribally owned parent, which compounds its small business and tribal enterprise qualifications and signals access to Cherokee Nation's broader federal portfolio and operational support infrastructure. The company's federal footprint—361 total awards with $52.4 billion combined potential value but only $516.9 million obligated (1%)—reflects the reality of blanket purchase agreements and indefinite delivery vehicles carrying high ceilings but variable utilization; actual invoiced SCI revenue of $85.6 million in FY2024 provides a more accurate signal of revenue scale and staffing capacity.
