HighViz Consulting Group's HVCG Federal Starts Advisory Council on Native American Marketing Matters
HighViz, small, woman owned company, seeks to build business within native american tribal entities -- does not want to see outsourcing outrun work that may be done 'on the res'
Haymarket, VA (PRWEB) October 10, 2004 -- Abbe Buck, Principal Consultant and
CEO of HighViz Consulting Group, (HVCG), small, woman owned, has opened the
corporation up to having an Advisory Council. The council will assist Ms. Buck
and her team in advising tribal entities that HighViz Consults to in training
and securing outsourced employment in non-traditional locations such as Native
American Indian reservations, which are recognized as HUBZones by the Small
Business Administration (www.sba.gov/hubzone) and the US Department of Commerce (http://www.mbda.gov/).
Ms.
Buck's council currently includes those in the tribal community and education
community, including Pro-Forms, a corporation that instructs students at
vocation schools how to obtain IT -related employment, Chitimacha Solutions, a
Tribal owned company operated by the Chitimacha Tribe of Louisiana, and Jon van
Horne, Esq. of Critical Desicision Analysis, a Management Consulting Firm, in
addition to advisors which include several key technology managers in DoD
agencies, and in the US Department of Commerce.
Abbe Buck of HighViz
Consulting Group/HVCG Federal, a FirstGov certified partner, saiys "We have a
high goal that we want to reach during Federal year 2005. This is to obtain
complete training and employment for "Contact Center Management", "Light
Manufacturing" and "Information Technology" teams that reside on Indian
Reservations." Buck explained that the The residents in several areas in the
Nation's Southwest and Northeastern States have previously proven to have the
ability to work virtually on-site and worldwide for Federal agencies and major
corporations seeking needed technical and CRM support. Federal Government
agencies, both Military and Civilian, have hired individual technical
representatives under the SBA's HUBZone program, which may guarantee Federal
funding through this vehicle. Major corporations such as DELL, Ford Motor
Company and Capital One, have expressed interest in the possibility of
underwriting HighViz projects that are being developed for native American
entities, known as "Transformational Outsourcing", in many marketing circles,
rather than outsource work to countries outside the US, such as India, ROK/South
Korea and Malaysia. "I get e-mails on a daily basis to have work go to Bangelore
by way of Nutley, New Jersey and San Antonio, Texas. This outsourcing should and
must stop. We can keep the work here within our borders and prove that all of
our American people are ably qualified." Buck said.
HighViz Consulting's
clients have included Youngbird, Inc. (Arapaho - Cheyenne) Lakota Technologies
(Cheyenne River Sioux, under the CGI Corporation), Agua Caliente Band of
Cahuilla Indians of Palm Springs, California, (through Greenberg Traurig)
Chitimacha Solutions, Inc., a Tribal owned 8(a) located in St Mary's County,
Louisiana. HighViz also has EZ Certify, Inc. as an active client, (www.ezcertify.com); "EZ
Certify, is the top 8(a) certification company" Buck said , "which specializes
in SBA 8(a) certification for minority and woman owned small business
corporations."

and Tysons Corner, Virginia and also works with entities in the western,
