The Department of Defense Georgia, acting as the state-level financial management intermediary, administers the cooperative agreement and passes funding to Georgia Air National Guard operational units and authorized service providers. The award funds operations and maintenance activities at Air National Guard facilities in Georgia.

The period of performance runs October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026. Place of performance is Georgia, USA. The full $1.45 million is obligated. A modification dated to open FY26 added $887,500 to the existing obligation structure for the agreement.

The National Guard Military Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Projects program is non-discretionary and congressionally directed. Only the 50 states, territories, and the District of Columbia may apply on behalf of their respective National Guard, and the National Guard Bureau negotiates annual budget requests with recipient states rather than accepting outside applications. Recipients must maintain records adequate to reflect the nature and extent of costs and expenditures for three years following cooperative agreement close-out.
