Coang facilities operations and maintenance activities

The Department of the Army Colorado Army National Guard awarded a $3.757 million cooperative agreement to the Colorado Department of Military and Veterans Affairs for operations and maintenance of Colorado Army National Guard and Colorado Air National Guard facilities, effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026, under the National Guard Military Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Projects program (CFDA 12.401).

The cooperative agreement funds facilities operations, maintenance, environmental program management, electronic security system installation and maintenance, command and control communications infrastructure, security guard activities, anti-terrorism program support, and administrative services supporting National Guard installations across Colorado. Work is performed statewide in Colorado. The Colorado Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, operating as the National Guard, is a state entity that delivers infrastructure, facilities, training, and administrative support sustaining operational readiness for Army and Air National Guard units.

This is a non-discretionary, Congressionally directed program. The National Guard Bureau enters annual cooperative agreements with the 50 states and territories to support operations and maintenance at their respective National Guard facilities. Recipients submit annual budget requests; program managers accept or negotiate the budget, then the grants officer executes the cooperative agreement.
