About Cherokee United Services, L.L.C.
Cherokee United Services, L.L.C., a tribally-owned, 8(a)-certified HUBZone small business based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, operates as a prime contractor (92% of recent awards) delivering specialized staffing, technical services, and application modernization to civilian federal agencies under set-aside vehicles. Cherokee United Services is a subsidiary of Cherokee Nation Businesses LLC and competes predominantly through Competitive 8(a) and 8(a) Sole Source designations across labor-hour priced delivery orders.
The vendor's customer concentration is heavily skewed toward USGS. The Department of the Interior's U.S. Geological Survey Office of Acquisitions and Grants anchors 26 of 36 total awards (72% of award count) and $53.8 million of the combined $137.9 million potential value. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (3 awards, $19.1 million), the Small Business Administration Office of Government Contracting and Business Development (2 awards, $22.6 million), and the Department of State (1 award, $22.5 million) round out the active set, with the top five funding agencies accounting for 92% of recent awards. The potential-value ranking diverges from award count because HHS and SBA awards carry significantly larger ceiling values per order — SBA's two awards ($22.6 million) and HHS's three awards ($19.1 million) represent large-scale contact center and application migration work — while USGS work is volume-driven through numerous smaller staffing task orders.
Cherokee United Services holds seat on a single-award Competitive 8(a) Indefinite Delivery Contract with USGS (140G0126D0002, $49.5 million ceiling through May 14, 2031), which has generated 24 task orders totaling $3.8 million in potential value across the Southeast region since award on May 6, 2026. The parent vehicle supports research, engineering, program management, GIS specialist, database specialist, hydrologic monitoring, coastal hazards, and business support roles at multiple field locations including St. Petersburg, Lafayette, Gainesville, Tuscaloosa, Nashville, Jackson, Fayetteville, and Columbia. Representative USGS work includes $612.6 thousand for coastal hazards support at NOAA's St. Petersburg facility, $581.6 thousand for Wood Hole oceanographic services, $449.4 thousand for Kennedy Space Center capacity operations support (issued by NASA under the parent IDIQ), $327.9 thousand for research equipment specialist roles in Tuscaloosa, and $269.3 thousand for research scientist staffing in Gainesville. Outside the IDIQ, recent definitive contract work includes a $22.5 million 8(a) Sole Source award from the Department of State for Reasonable Accommodations Support Personnel through January 2030 (time-and-materials pricing, Washington, DC), a $19.96 million 8(a) Sole Source award from HHS's Office of the Chief Information Officer for CISO Cybersecurity Transformation through September 2026, a $14.78 million 8(a) Sole Source award from HHS Administration for Children and Families for AWS-to-NGSC application migration through September 2027, a $12.27 million full-and-open award from the SBA's Office of Government Contracting and Business Development for a certification contact center through January 2030, and a $10.3 million full-and-open award from the same SBA office for a GCBD contact center through January 2030.
Activity has accelerated sharply. The vendor recorded eight awards in 2024, two in 2025, and 26 in 2026 — the vast majority arriving in May and June 2026 when USGS issued sixteen task orders and HHS and SBA closed large definitive contracts. Twenty-seven awards (combined potential value $39 million) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting immediate recompete exposure. The vendor obligated $28.6 million of its $137.9 million combined potential value — 21% draw-down — suggesting significant performance backlog. In its minor subcontractor role, Cherokee United Services performs customer support specialist and IT support technician services under Cherokee Nation System Solutions LLC (Air Force and Afghan community integration programs). SCI-reportable federal service contract invoicing totaled $113 thousand in FY2024 across 1.9 FTEs (2 prime and 1 sub record), with government-paid rates around $519 per hour across the sample — a median reflecting specialized staffing and program management labor categories. The SCI dataset is a narrow slice: it excludes the vendor's larger fixed-price definitive contracts, the vendor's goods and product revenue, and any work below the $150,000 reporting threshold. Cherokee United Services' capability portfolio centers on labor-hour staffing (research scientists, engineers, program managers, GIS specialists, database specialists, business support roles, technicians) and discrete modernization projects (application migration, cybersecurity transformation), with all work routed to civilian agencies under EO 14398 set-aside vehicles and larger HHS and SBA indefinite-delivery or definitive contracts.
