Cesia Gil

Cesia Gil serves as a primary contracting professional within the USDA Forest Service, supporting the agency’s mission to sustain national forest and grassland ecosystems through strategic acquisition of management and security services. Responsible for executing full lifecycle procurement actions, Gil oversees contracts aligned with operational readiness, ecological restoration, and emergency response capabilities in remote and high-risk environments. Her acquisitions primarily focus on professional consulting services and security systems, ensuring the Forest Service maintains administrative efficiency and physical infrastructure protection across federally managed lands. She plays a critical role in translating mission-critical needs into compliant, transparent contracting actions that uphold federal procurement standards under the FAR. Gil maintains consistent relationships with a select group of contractors, including ACI FEDERAL INC, ONE STOP RECRUITING LLC, GONDO ROY E MD, THE LOCUMS CO, LLC, and AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized service providers offering administrative management consulting, workforce staffing solutions, and integrated security systems. Her contracting patterns suggest a reliance on vendors with proven expertise in supporting federal land management operations, particularly those capable of delivering flexible, on-demand technical and personnel services in austere environments. Gil’s procurement portfolio demonstrates a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately one-third of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a deliberate effort to engage small business concerns. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a commitment to fostering competition and expanding opportunities for qualified small firms within the federal contracting ecosystem. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services), reflecting a strong demand for strategic planning, operational efficiency, and program management support. Complementing this, NAICS 561621 (Security Systems Services) underscores her role in procuring physical and cyber-enabled security infrastructure to protect forest service personnel, facilities, and critical assets. Together, these domains reveal expertise in sustaining both administrative and physical resilience across the nation’s public lands.
