Puerto Rico Ports Authority

Puerto Rico Ports Authority, a non-profit Puerto Rico government entity operating through its Federal Funds Management Office Division and doing business as Autoridad De LOS Puertos De PR, is a federal grant recipient that manages airport and maritime infrastructure projects across Puerto Rico, with 512 prime grant awards (98% of total awards) and 13 sub-awards under the Federal Aviation Administration, Maritime Administration, Environmental Protection Agency, and Department of Transportation.

The vendor's federal footprint centers on infrastructure development and rehabilitation funded through federal grants rather than contracts. Core grant programs include the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), which funds runway reconstruction, taxiway rehabilitation, terminal expansion, and apron pavement work at multiple Puerto Rico airports (Aguadilla, San Juan, Ponce, Arecibo). Recent representative awards include a $25.7 million FAA Airport Infrastructure Grants (CFDA 20.117) award in April 2026 for Phase 5 runway reconstruction at Aguadilla, a $14.87 million Airport Improvement Program award in May 2026 for Phase 6 of the same runway project, and a $87 million Maritime Administration Port Infrastructure Development Program award (CFDA 20.823) in January 2026 for reconstruction of Wharves N and O at Puerto Nuevo Docks in San Juan. Additional maritime work includes a $27.14 million MARAD National Infrastructure Investments award for Wharf C rehabilitation and a $22.39 million award for Wharf D planning and design-build services at the same facility, both with July 2031 completion dates. The vendor also received a $1.8 million EPA Clean Ports Program award (CFDA 66.051) in January 2025 for emissions accounting, strategy analysis, and workforce planning at the Port of San Juan. The vendor manages multiple phases of phased runway and taxiway projects across Puerto Rico airports, delivering design, permitting, construction management, and design-build services with ultimate completion dates extending through 2031.

Customer concentration skews toward federal transportation and infrastructure agencies. The top five funding agencies by award count are the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Southern Region (78 awards), the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Central Office Office of Leasing (66 awards, $154.8 million combined potential value), the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (46 awards), the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service (16 awards), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance Awards (13 awards). These top five account for 42% of awards by count and 42% of combined potential value. The FAA dominates award volume but GSA's potential value share reflects larger individual facility lease and building-service awards sitting on GSA Basic Ordering Agreements; the two rankings diverge because FAA grants tend to carry higher individual dollar magnitudes than GSA lease transactions.

Parent vehicles drive GSA award activity. The vendor places work under five GSA Basic Ordering Agreements: GS02B18985 (101 task orders, $80.9 million combined potential value), GS02B19075 (47 task orders, $121.2 million), GS02B19105 (12 task orders, $109.2 million), GS02B18978 (105 task orders, $3.7 million), and GS02B19078 (78 task orders, $1.9 million). These represent a mix of building lease and facility operations vehicles at GSA offices nationwide.

Award activity has remained moderate across the past five years. The vendor recorded nine awards in 2022, three in 2023, twelve in 2024, nine in 2025, and seven in 2026 (through mid-July). Combined potential value across all 525 awards totals $374.3 million, though obligated dollars reach $929 million (248% of potential value), indicating substantial prior year obligations and multi-year execution. Only one award is slated for ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal near-term recompete exposure. The vendor acts as prime recipient on nearly all work; sub-awards (2% of portfolio) are concentrated under Puerto Rico Commonwealth Of (the parent Puerto Rico government entity) and are routed through the Governor's Authorized Representative for Public Assistance and Infrastructure Mitigation Program funding.

The vendor's grant footprint aligns with its statutory mission as Puerto Rico's airport and port authority. It does not compete under federal set-asides (8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB) and maintains no federal contract vehicles. As a child entity of Puerto Rico government, it serves as a pass-through recipient for federal infrastructure grants directed to Puerto Rico airports and maritime facilities, delivering project management, design, and construction oversight rather than selling commodities or professional services to federal agencies.
