Gildo Nonini, Inc.

Gildo Nonini, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Fresno, California, supplies heavy equipment for wildland fire suppression and incident response to the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service as a prime contractor under Total Small Business set-asides. The vendor holds four federal awards, all prime positions under multiple-award indefinite-delivery contracts issued by the National Interagency Fire Center, with a combined potential value of $1.1 million across wildfire management programs spanning USDA Forest Service Regions 5 and 6 in the Pacific Southwest and West Zone.

Gildo Nonini's customer base is concentrated entirely within the Forest Service fire-and-aviation mission. The National Interagency Fire Center accounts for three awards ($1 million combined potential value), with the remaining award issued to the Forest Service's R5-Pacific Southwest Region ($81 thousand). All work falls under NAICS 333923 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC Natural Resources/Conservation-Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression. The vendor's portfolio consists of three multiple-award indefinite-delivery contracts awarded between July 2023 and February 2026: a $250 thousand IDIQ for miscellaneous heavy equipment issued July 10, 2023 (running through July 10, 2028); a $500 thousand IDIQ for heavy equipment supporting West Zone Regions 5 and 6 issued February 6, 2026 (through July 10, 2028); and a $250 thousand IDIQ issued July 22, 2026 (through July 22, 2029). Against the largest contract, Gildo Nonini received a delivery order on August 11, 2026 for $81,200 (firm fixed price) with performance in Solvang, California and completion date August 24, 2026. Combined dollars obligated total $81 thousand, representing 8 percent of combined potential value — indicating early engagement with task orders still ramping. Activity resumed after a gap: one award in 2023, then three awards in 2026. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime under Total Small Business set-asides and carries no subcontract relationships in the source data.
