This definitive contract represents a targeted federal award to the Chippewa Cree Tribe of the Rocky Boy Reservation, a recognized Native American tribal organization. The contract facilitates the implementation and management of Tribal Employment Rights Ordinance (TERO) activities for fiscal year 2026. The contract is crucial for supporting employment rights and opportunities within the tribe's jurisdiction, enhancing economic and workforce development on the reservation. The scope of work encompasses administering TERO compliance, workforce training, and business development support under the ordinance. Awarded through a direct contracting process to honor tribal sovereignty and specific local employment needs, the contract covers a one-year period with performance planned from early fall of 2025 through late fall of 2026. The contract’s modest scale reflects a focused effort on tribal workforce empowerment and regulatory enforcement without broader subcontractor involvement or competitive bidding due to its nature as a tribal self-governance agreement.
