Cherokee Federal is a division of Cherokee Nation Businesses that contracts with U.S. federal agencies across defense, intelligence, technology, health services, logistics, manufacturing, and program management. Operating from headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma with regional offices nationwide, the company serves over 60 federal agencies globally and ranks among the top 100 federal contractors, with more than 5,000 professionals on staff.
The company's technical scope spans advanced technology solutions and intelligence analysis work for defense and civilian agencies. Its organizational structure as a tribal-owned enterprise creates a distinct operational posture within the federal contracting space, with stated advantages in agility and cultural alignment on mission-critical work.
Cherokee Federal emerged in 2019 as a consolidated entity, bringing together decades of cumulative experience across its service domains. Operationally, the company functions as a general contractor across multiple federal verticals rather than as a specialized vendor - the breadth of its portfolio indicates work spanning strategic intelligence, logistics operations, healthcare delivery systems, and manufacturing support.
