About the Company
A company born in one of the most remote corners of the globe is now powering some of the most critical, cutting-edge work performed in the federal government. Akima is the largest and fastest-growing subsidiary of the NANA Corporation, one of 13 regional entities created by the 1971 Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. The landmark legislation aimed to resolve long-standing issues surrounding aboriginal land claims in Alaska and to spur economic growth among Alaska Native populations. From this unique heritage, Akima was born. Headquartered in Herndon, Virginia, Akima is a global enterprise delivering agile solutions to the federal government. The company supports a network of over 40 socioeconomically disadvantaged small businesses through an innovative shared services model that provides business processes and shared back-office support at a level akin to that found in a Fortune 500 defense contractor. This enables Akima`s portfolio of companies to operate as a small business in terms of autonomy, customer interaction and decision making, while receiving support from an organization with more than three decades of experience working with the federal government. Akima`s key capabilities are in Information Technology, Systems Engineering, Base Operations & Logistics Management, Protective Services & Detention Management, Aviation Services and Construction.
