Shoshone Translation is not only 8(a) qualified, but also is certified as a HUBZone company, which allows it to qualify for other contracts not even set-aside for 8(a) companies. HUBZone status is in many ways more selective than 8(a) status and tribes have an inherent advantage in maintaining HUBZone status, which can have perpetual duration. In the Company’s case, its domicile in Box Elder County (as well as its trust land) can provide ongoing HUBZone status, which combined with the 8(a) status make an attractive combination for government contracting.
