Contracting with the federal government is a highly regulated process governed by a maze of statutes and regulations. Government contracts law involves assisting businesses in complying with the complex set of procedures that must be followed in order for companies to provide goods and services to governments (federal, state or municipal) or challenging the actions of the government or a third party in entering into or executing a government contract for goods or services.
Noyes is an unincorporated community in St. Vincent Township, Kittson County, Minnesota, United States. Located in the extreme northwestern corner of the state, it was an important border-crossing location going back to the days of ox roads. It is the northern terminus of U.S. Route 75 and the site where the Burlington Northern-Santa Fe and Soo Line Railroads enter Canada. With the development of Interstate 29 on the opposite side of the nearby North Dakota border, U.S. Route 75 has declined in importance, and the corresponding Canadian border crossing in Emerson, Manitoba closed in 1999. With the duty-free store closed, Noyes is close to becoming a ghost town.
