NANA is a 10,000+ person Alaska Native corporation owned by over 14,700 Iñupiat shareholders, with diversified business units spanning federal contracting, oil & gas, mining, construction, and IT services. The tech stack reveals a traditional enterprise posture—Windows/Office/SharePoint backbone with Remedy, ServiceNow, and Splunk for operations—but adopting cloud (Azure AD, Power Apps) and agile governance (SAFe) while phasing out legacy SharePoint, indicating early-stage modernization. Hiring velocity is minimal across a broad ops-heavy workforce, with acute pain around compliance (regulatory, cybersecurity, EVM standards) and staffing constraints.
