New Hampshire National Guard

The Department of the Army New Hampshire Army National Guard is a sub-agency of the U.S. military's primary state-based service component, managing federal contracts and cooperative grants for facility construction, maintenance, equipment procurement, and operational support at Pease Air National Guard Base and subordinate New Hampshire Air National Guard installations.

The agency has awarded 2,167 federal contracts since September 2002, with a combined potential value of $105.7 million and combined dollars obligated of $126.8 million. Contract activity has declined measurably in recent years: 23 awards in 2021, 26 in 2022, 12 in 2023, 16 in 2024, and 4 year-to-date in 2026, with the most recent recorded award dated March 2025. The contracting footprint spans 900 distinct prime contractors. Competitive concentration among primes is highly fragmented. Blue TECH Inc. leads by award count with 6 recent awards totaling $874 thousand in potential value; over the last five years, the top five primes account for 32 percent of recent awards but only 3 percent of combined potential value, reflecting a long tail of small-dollar task orders and Schedule buys. Seventy-three percent of all awards carry no set-aside designation, while 23 percent are small-business set-asides. Competitive 8(a) awards comprise 2 percent of the portfolio; HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, and Woman-Owned Small Business designations together represent less than 2 percent.

The agency has issued 80 federal cooperative-agreement grants since October 2014, obligating $155.2 million in federal dollars and $175.5 million in total (federal plus non-federal) dollars, with the most recently recorded award dated February 2026. Grant activity has remained stable: 13 awards in 2022, 14 in 2023, 12 in 2024, 13 in 2025, and 1 year-to-date in 2026. All grants are Cooperative Agreements. Grant funding is highly concentrated: the Adjutant General New Hampshire Office has received 53 of the last 5 years' 53 awards, representing 100 percent of recent award count and 50 percent of recent federal dollars obligated, with no second recipient named in the portfolio.

Current contracting activity centers on facility construction and equipment repair at Pease ANGB.
