Nulato Hills Enterprises, LLC

Nulato Hills Enterprises, LLC, a Native American-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Nulato, Alaska, operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering wildland fire crew services and land management support to the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture, competing under full-and-open procurement with no set-aside designations despite its minority-owned status.

Nulato Hills Enterprises is a sole proprietorship classified as an Indian Economic Enterprise and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise. The vendor delivers Type 2 wildland fire hand crews of 18–20 personnel stationed across nine Alaska performance regions with nationwide deployment capability and 2–3 hour mobilization windows during the June 1–August 31 mandatory availability window. Service scope encompasses hazardous fuels reduction, road construction, vegetation clearing, wood-related services, and wildfire crew support. All 31 awards in the source data are prime contracts; the vendor holds no subcontract positions and does not subcontract to other firms.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management National Office anchors 25 of 31 awards (80% of the portfolio by count) with a combined potential value of $52 million, representing 50% of the vendor's total exposure. The BLM Idaho Region places 4 additional awards ($2.2 million), while the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Washington Office Acquisitions and the BLM Alaska Region each place one award. The Forest Service award, dated May 5, 2025, is a $50 million Land Management Integrated Resources (LMIR) Blanket Purchase Agreement running through March 6, 2033, which expands scope beyond wildfire to environmental consulting and natural resources restoration services under NAICS 541620 and PSC R408. Two parent vehicles funnel the vast majority of task orders: Indefinite Delivery Contract 140L0621D0007 ($7.9 million, 22 task orders) and IDC 140L0626D0011 ($40 million ceiling, 6 task orders awarded as of source date). Representative prime work includes a $695,000 delivery order for Type 2 crew assignment services to the BLM Idaho Region (August 20, 2026), a $560,000 time-and-materials delivery order for the Nenana Ridge Complex project (July 11, 2025), a $332,000 Eagle Fuels Reduction contract (September 21, 2022), and a $275,000 wildfire crew services delivery order to the BLM Alaska Region (September 8, 2026).

Activity has grown steadily from four awards in 2022 to seven in both 2025 and 2026. The vendor has obligated only $6.5 million against a combined potential value of $104.4 million (6% draw-down), reflecting the LMIR BPA ceiling's recent addition to the portfolio and the time-and-materials structure of most delivery orders, which carry task-order ceilings rather than fully obligated amounts. The recompete exposure is substantial: IDC 140L0621D0007, which carries $4.1 million of the active portfolio, reaches ultimate completion on March 31, 2031, while the newer IDC 140L0626D0011 ($2.5 million in issued task orders against a $40 million ceiling) also completes March 31, 2031. The $50 million LMIR BPA extends to March 6, 2033, representing the vendor's largest single vehicle holding. Awards are concentrated in NAICS 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry) and PSC F003 (Forest-Range Fire Suppression/Presuppression), with the LMIR BPA adding PSC R408 scope. The vendor's entire footprint is public-lands fire and land management for two federal agencies, with zero commercial or defense exposure and zero subcontract volume.
