Alaska Department Of Transportation & Public Facilities

Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities, Department Wide Activity Division, doing business as Juneau Reservations, is a state government entity that acts as the prime recipient of federal grants for multimodal transportation infrastructure across Alaska, delivering airport, highway, ferry, and planning services statewide as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards) with no federal contract prime posture.

The entity is a child division of the State of Alaska, headquartered in Juneau. As a U.S. state government agency, it operates under NAICS 928120 (Administration of Public Health Programs) and NAICS 926120 (Regulation and Administration of Transportation Programs), though award data reflects a portfolio dominated by real property lease and rental activity (67 of 470 recent awards under NAICS 531110, Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings). The vendor delivers concrete services grounded in federal grant programs: pavement preservation and resurfacing across Alaska highways, airport infrastructure improvements including runway and taxiway reconstruction and lighting rehabilitation, ferry terminal facilities upgrades, airport snow removal equipment acquisition, safety corridor improvements, bridge rehabilitation, and multimodal transportation planning and technical assistance statewide.

Customer concentration reflects near-total dependence on federal transportation and safety formula grants. The Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration accounts for 12,590 awards across the portfolio (90% of all awards by count), followed by the Federal Aviation Administration Alaska Region (688 awards) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (121 awards). The top five federal customers by award count cover 99% of recent grants. By potential value, the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service anchors the portfolio at $16.1 million combined across 15 awards for property lease and rental, followed by the Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration at $9.9 million across 18 awards, but these represent outlier value concentration; the core portfolio consists of formula-distributed FHWA and FAA grants of moderate individual size. Recent representative grants include a $1.8 million Rural and Tribal Assistance Pilot Program award for the Cantwell Separated Paths road safety project, multiple Airport Improvement Program grants ranging from $100 thousand to $72.4 million for runway, taxiway, apron, and lighting work across Alaska airports, Surface Transportation Block Grant Program awards for pavement preservation and snowtrail maintenance, and Highway Planning and Construction grants for major bridge replacement and highway resurfacing initiatives. The entity sits on one named parent vehicle: the Basic Ordering Agreement GS10B06826, which carries 66 task orders valued at $32.2 million combined potential value, a vehicle used for property and facility management services.

Activity has declined from a peak of 545 awards in 2023 to 160 awards year-to-date in 2026, reflecting the concentrated, time-bound nature of federal grant disbursement to state transportation agencies. Within the next twenty-four months, 366 awards reach ultimate completion date and face recompete or renewal. The portfolio carries 14,002 total awards spanning over two decades, with combined obligated dollars of $19.08 billion against combined potential value of $46.3 million—a ratio reflecting the state's serial receipt of formula-distributed grants and the distinction between ceiling authority and actual obligation across an extended award base. Work is performed statewide across Alaska, with administrative oversight centered in Juneau. The entity does not compete on federal prime contracts or hold set-aside certifications; it operates as a direct state grant recipient managing federal transportation and infrastructure funding on behalf of Alaska's multimodal transportation network.
