Angelo Cattaneo

Angelo Cattaneo, doing business as Cattaneo Trucking, is a HUBZone-certified small business sole proprietorship providing transportation, heavy equipment rental, water handling, and logistical support services to the USDA Forest Service as a prime contractor across its federal footprint. The company competes full and open (no set-asides on individual delivery orders) but holds multiple total small business set-aside indefinite delivery contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center that serve as the foundation for its Forest Service work.

Cattaneo Trucking is based in Hayfork, California, with operations supporting wildfire suppression, prevention, emergency response, and land management across the western United States. The company's concrete service portfolio spans dump trucks, excavators, bulldozers, potable and gray water trucks, mobile laundry units, and associated personnel and logistics support. Representative work includes a $27,600 delivery order from USDA Forest Service Region 6 (Pacific Northwest Region) for wildfire suppression support in Lakeview, Oregon, awarded August 10, 2026; a $63,050 delivery order from Region 6 for wildfire suppression logistics in Roseburg, Oregon, awarded July 31, 2026; and a $523,408.79 purchase order from Region 5 (Pacific Southwest Region) for four dump trucks to support the South Fork Complex, awarded September 21, 2023.

Customer concentration sits almost entirely with the USDA Forest Service. The top five funding entities account for 96 percent of recent awards, dominated by Forest Service Region 5 (Pacific Southwest Region) with 130 awards valued at $7.3 million combined potential value, followed by the National Interagency Fire Center (16 awards, $4.9 million), and Forest Service Fire and Aviation Management (43 awards, $1.9 million). The two rankings by award count and potential value are closely aligned, reflecting consistent mid-to-high-value task orders rather than portfolio concentration distortion.

Cattaneo Trucking operates as a pure prime contractor (100 percent of recent awards) with no subcontract footprint. The company holds nine active indefinite delivery contracts—five worth $500,000 each and four worth $250,000 each—all awarded by the National Interagency Fire Center and set aside for total small business. The top-performing vehicle is IDC 12569R23T7463 with 27 task orders valued at $1.7 million combined, alongside blanket purchase agreements AG9J61B167196 (20 task orders, $419 thousand), AG9J61B157089 (15 task orders, $519 thousand), and AG9J61B137158 (14 task orders, $603 thousand). These vehicles cover water handling equipment and services for Region 5; mobile laundry units for national deployment; heavy equipment for West Zone Regions 5 and 6; miscellaneous heavy equipment for Region 5; and potable and gray water trucks with trailer-mounted handwashing stations for Region 5 only, with ultimate completion dates extending through June 2030.

Work volume has grown modestly year over year—19 awards in 2022 to 24 in 2023 to 21 in 2025—with award counts showing relative stability around 20 annually. The combined potential value across the entire recent portfolio stands at $15.2 million with $8.4 million obligated (55 percent realization rate). Award specialization is extreme: 194 awards carry NAICS Support Activities for Forestry, with 203 awards tagged to PSC Natural Resources/Conservation—Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression, reflecting near-total dependency on Forest Service emergency response and land management missions. The company's award history spans from 2006 through the present, demonstrating sustained relationship with the agency over two decades. Performance locations include Redding, Eureka, and Yreka in California, Lakeview and Roseburg in Oregon, and subordinate dispatch centers across Regions 3, 5, 6, and 10 for nationwide emergency response deployment.
