About the company

Gold Wave Inc., headquartered in Darien, Illinois, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and Women-Owned Small Business providing environmental remediation, fuel storage tank services, facility demolition, and site preparation to federal agencies as a prime contractor across all of its recent work. Gold Wave holds SBA certifications as an SDVOSB (expires April 9, 2026), WOSB, small disadvantaged business, and veteran-owned small business; the company operates as a Subchapter S corporation and competes exclusively under small business set-asides or full-and-open competition, with approximately 66% of awards designated as total small business or SDVOSB set-asides.

Gold Wave's customer footprint is highly diversified across 34 federal agencies, with no single customer dominating either award count or dollar value. The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration leads by award frequency (5 awards, $715 thousand combined potential value), but the VA's Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 anchors the largest single contract value at $2.6 million across two awards — a $1.74 million definitive contract for construction of a 4,800 square foot material storage shed at the Tomah VA Medical Center and a $897,680 pond area improvement and painting contract at the Illiana Healthcare System in Danville, Illinois, both set-aside for SDVOSB. The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Northeast Area accounts for $1.6 million across four awards, including a $1.33 million repair contract for five Beltsville Agricultural Research Center fuel stations and a $324,800 contract to replace seed cold storage rooms in Urbana, Illinois. Smaller concentrations appear across the Department of the Interior, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, National Park Service, Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and U.S. Geological Survey.

Gold Wave's core capability centers on environmental remediation services — 25 of 53 prime awards fall under remediation NAICS codes — including asbestos and lead-based paint abatement, underground and aboveground storage tank testing, inspection, replacement, and cleaning, soil remediation, fuel tank demolition, and hazardous waste site support. Representative contracts include a $668,000 purchase order from the U.S. Coast Guard to repair three 80,000-gallon JP-5 fuel tanks at USCG Base Elizabeth City, North Carolina; a $540,244 definitive contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs to replace eight above-ground storage fuel tanks at Canandaigua and Bath VA Medical Centers in New York; a $336,120 fuel tank cleaning delivery order with the Las Vegas VA Medical Center; and $281,480 in monthly inspection, yearly testing, and triennial inspection services for underground and aboveground storage tanks at the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center in Maryland, running through May 2029. Secondary capability includes commercial and institutional building construction (5 awards), including site preparation, facility demolition, and infrastructure projects such as mobile PET-CT trailer pad preparation, building abatement and renovation, material storage shed construction, and retaining wall replacement at national cemeteries. Gold Wave also performs wetland restoration and drainage improvement work: a $586,395 underground storage tank cleanup and construction project at the McCall Yard facility in the USDA Forest Service Intermountain Region, completion by May 2025, and smaller USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service wetland restoration easement projects in Kentucky totaling approximately $65,000.

Gold Wave holds a $500,000 Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity Federal Supply Schedule contract with GSA's Federal Acquisition Service (contract 47QRAA23D003C), effective January 20, 2023 through January 19, 2028. This parent vehicle has generated 19 task orders with combined potential value of $1.6 million, primarily drawing delivery orders from the Department of Veterans Affairs, National Park Service, U.S. Geological Survey, Environmental Protection Agency, Department of the Interior, Department of Agriculture, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Task order values range from $8,070 (ASARCO Superfund site support with EPA Region 9) to $235,800 (diesel fuel tank cleaning at VA VISN 9 in Lexington, Kentucky, running through June 2029). Gold Wave's GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans six categories from Word Processor/Administrative Support at $66.08 per hour through Principal at $211.77 per hour, reflecting education requirements from associate's degree through bachelor's degree with experience spanning one to fifteen years; no security-cleared positions are offered. Labor-category work appears embedded in larger environmental and construction delivery orders rather than as standalone labor augmentation contracts.

Activity has grown substantially — from two awards in 2022 to 27 in 2024 — though recent years show moderation at five awards in 2025 and nine year-to-date in 2026. Combined potential value across all 53 awards is $12.5 million with $11.5 million obligated (92% conversion rate), indicating strong execution and cash draw. Six awards with combined potential value of $4.3 million face ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure; these include contracts with VA VISN 12 (pond area improvement, due March 7, 2027), VA VISN 6 (fuel oil testing and treatment running through August 2031 but with intermediate milestones), and multiple smaller environmental and facility projects at VA medical centers and national cemeteries due between late 2026 and late 2027.

Gold Wave maintains one named subsidiary, Gold Wave-RW Collins JV, LLC, a limited liability company that carries the same SBA certifications (SDVOSB, WOSB, small disadvantaged business, veteran-owned, woman-owned). The source does not indicate whether this subsidiary holds active prime awards or operates as a sub-partnership vehicle. As a 100% prime contractor footprint with zero sub-awards in the source data, Gold Wave does not subcontract and does not anchor other vendors as a prime.
