Most hazard mitigation, resilience, and floodplain planning task orders are competed under 541620, and the company is actively seeking subcontract and teaming positions on that work. Additional codes can be added to the registration where a requirement calls for one, so contracting officers and capture managers should ask rather than assume the list is closed.

Choctaw Strategies, LLC, doing business as Okla Risk Advisors, is a self certified Indian Economic Enterprise and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise, Buy Indian Act eligible, and a small disadvantaged business, with an SBA 8(a) application in process. That standing supports Indian preference requirements and small and disadvantaged business utilization goals on federal, state, and tribal awards.
Yes. Choctaw Strategies, LLC holds an active SAM.gov registration under UEI MYNPY7NBUBT8 and CAGE 21SJ5, with primary NAICS 524291 and additional codes covering environmental consulting (541620), management consulting, building inspection, technical consulting, and emergency relief services. A capability statement, W-9, and certificates of insurance are available on request.
No, and the distinction matters for an acquisition file. Choctaw Strategies, LLC is wholly owned by one individual who is an enrolled citizen of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. It is not owned by a Tribe, a tribal enterprise, an Alaska Native Corporation, or a Native Hawaiian Organization. That individual ownership qualifies the company as an Indian Economic Enterprise under the Buy Indian Act and as a small disadvantaged business, and it supports Indian preference and small business utilization goals. It does not carry the unlimited sole source authority available to tribally owned and ANC owned 8(a) participants, so a sole source award to this company follows the ordinary dollar thresholds.
Sometimes, and it is worth asking. As a Native American owned enterprise, the firm can stand up additional professional and technical capability through teaming, staffing, and subcontracting arrangements. Contracting officers and small business liaisons with requirements adjacent to our practice areas are encouraged to reach out rather than assume.

Not a public adjusting firm. The firm does not represent policyholders as a public adjuster and does not solicit public adjusting engagements.

Work for governmental and tribal clients is independent consulting and reconciliation, not policyholder advocacy. Adjusting services are provided only where the firm holds the required license or a valid reciprocal or emergency designation.
Expert, appraisal and umpire engagements. Availability is subject to conflict clearance and to any licensure, registration, or appointment requirements of the jurisdiction and the policy at issue. Some states regulate who may serve as an appraiser or umpire. The firm confirms its ability to serve before accepting an engagement. The firm accepts one role per matter and does not serve as both a party appointed appraiser and a retained testifying expert in the same dispute. No representation is made as to the outcome of any matter.
Not a government agency. The firm is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authorized to speak for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Department of Homeland Security, the Small Business Administration, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Indian Health Service, the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, or any other government or tribal government.

Federal program status and eligibility change without notice, and the governing regulation, policy, or notice of funding opportunity controls. The firm does not guarantee that any grant, obligation, appeal, award, or reimbursement will be approved or received.
Socioeconomic status. Choctaw Strategies, LLC is wholly owned by one individual who is an enrolled citizen of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. This is individual Indian ownership.

The SBA 8(a) Business Development application is pending and no 8(a) certification is claimed. All representations are subject to verification in SAM.gov.
