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.

Comparison Summary
FPDS Query flattens the original nested FPDS XML path 'OtherTransactionIDV/contractDetail/vendor/vendorSiteDetails/vendorSocioEconomicIndicators/isAmericanIndianOwned' into the SQL-ready variable 'content__OtherTransactionIDV__contractDetail__vendor__vendorSiteDetails__vendorSocioEconomicIndicators__isAmericanIndianOwned'.

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.
