Is American Indian Owned
Boolean or coded flag indicating whether the vendor site is identified as American Indian-owned in the FPDS record. It is a socio-economic indicator attached to the vendor site detail, not a contract action attribute. The example value 0 typically means the condition is not met or the indicator is false, depending on the source encoding.

Use Cases
- Dictionary lookup and field explanation
- SQL filtering and grouping
- Analytical reporting and reusable query building
- Contractor profiling and competitor analysis
Common Usage
- Count or filter awards to American Indian-owned vendors
- Segment procurement spend by socio-economic ownership status
- Support compliance and diversity reporting for vendor participation
Common Mistakes
- Assuming 0 always means 'No' without checking the dataset's code convention
- Using the flag as proof of eligibility for set-aside programs without validating other award or registration fields
Query Guidance
Use explicit filters on the encoded value after confirming the local representation, for example WHERE isAmericanIndianOwned = 1 or WHERE isAmericanIndianOwned = 'Y'. When analyzing spend or counts, deduplicate at the vendor or vendor-site level if multiple records can repeat the same indicator across actions or modifications.
