Aleut Capabilities

attention is not our way of excelling in our business. Instead, we seek and implement proactive solutions that will improve operational support and mission support while always looking for ways to stretch our customers constrained budgets. For example, ACS continues to develop improved processes utilizing the ITIL model with our customers for improving Service Management as it is uniquely aligned with each of our customers specific business and mission perspectives.

Our growing team of experts bring extensive levels of expertise in product solutions such as Microsoft Certified Professionals and Engineers, Cisco Certified Professionals and Engineers, a variety of telecommunications system expertise from vendors such as Nortel, Avaya, Siemens, and Shortel – all bringing a broad, yet expert range of experience that can surely meet our customers current and future needs.

Whether you’re looking for a dynamic and proactive IT services company to meet your specific Communications and IT service needs, or looking for a partner that is ready and able to ‘make it happen’, the ACS Team stands ready to serve. ACS, as an Alaskan-Native owned company, provides several distinct advantages. Here’s the “ACS Advantage” …

The Alaskan-Native Corporation (ANC) Advantage –

Positioned to Perform -- The advantage of doing business with ACS is of benefit to our Customers and business Teammates. The Aleut ANC Advantage brings special value that can save both time and money for our customers. Federal law was enacted in 1971 that provides special privileges only ANC’s can claim – all for the benefit of economic improvement to the Alaska region, but benefits that directly translate to our Customers. ANC’s can negotiate Direct Awards (Sole Source) with Government Customers. The outstanding benefits working with Aleut companies are:

Direct Awards to ANC’s are fully protected and cannot be protested
No contract dollar limit on awards to ANC’s

A streamlined procurement significantly saves our Government Customers time and acquisition preparation and source selection costs
Special rule for DoD A-76 Direct Conversions – Unlimited value and eliminates the time consuming head-aches involved with A-76 studies and competitions – Greatly accelerates meeting mission requirements
Allows Government Customer to collaborate work requirements, technical approaches required, etc. so time is spent on RFP activities is eliminated
Reduced risk to the Customer since ANC’s proven capabilities are reviewed thoroughly prior to award – Allows fully open dialogue with clear, proven examples of successful experience.
Results in better contract performance – We fully realize the value we bring to Customers and work hard to keep our customers happy for future business.
DoD Prime Contractors (if we sub-contract with a teammate) are eligible to receive a 5% Indian Incentive Rebate.

The Aleut Management Services Advantage –

Strong Corporate Organization & Support -- Aleut Management Services (AMS), as our holding company, continues to deliver a unique and responsive mix of “Corporate-Level” services to ACS. As a holding company for 5 distinctly managed and capable companies of which ACS is one, AMS delivers consolidated, cost-saving services such as Human Resources, Purchasing, PeopleSoft-based Financial Management, ISO 9001 Quality & Safety, Operations Management, etc. Our consolidated model of expert back-end support to our subsidiary companies and, more importantly, to their Customers ensures that the AMS team stands ready to support any requirement in short-notice as well as ensuring a consistent, repeatable process. This consolidated management approach also delivers efficiency and cost savings to our customers with an overhead that is spread across multiple contract projects rather than a single project bearing full costs of such corporate-level services. This does not indicate that our Customers will not have on-site, staffed resources, but rather allows the Aleut Family of companies to evaluate each project, with varying mission requirements, and determine where Customer Service and operational costs can best be achieved for all involved, but yet with a consistent and repeatable process for our Customer’s main benefit.

The ACS Core Competency Advantage –

Experience & Performance -- Our Core Competencies are directed towards delivering expert Communications and Information Technology solutions and services to our customers.
