City Of Dayton

City of Dayton, a U.S. local government municipality based in Dayton, Ohio, acts as a prime recipient of federal grants and performs municipal infrastructure, housing, and public safety work across 27 federal agencies. The City does not compete for federal contracts and instead receives direct grants under formula-based and discretionary federal programs; it operates as a sub-recipient on transportation projects passed through the Ohio Department of Transportation and other state entities.

The City's federal footprint centers on infrastructure investment, affordable housing, homelessness services, and airport operations. Representative prime grant work includes a $7.75 million HUD Lead Hazard Reduction grant (CFDA 14.900, awarded March 2026) for lead-based paint hazard control in pre-1960 rental and owner-occupied housing targeting children under six; a $5.924 million FAA Airport Improvement Program grant (CFDA 20.116, August 2026) to reconstruct three existing passenger boarding bridges at Dayton International Airport; a $4 million EPA Cooperative Agreement (CFDA 66.202, June 2026) to expand and renovate the City's Central Water Quality Laboratory with 2,300 square feet of new construction and 16,300 square feet of renovation in Dayton; and a $3.528 million HUD Continuum of Care grant (CFDA 14.267, June 2026) supporting permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, and supportive services for homeless individuals and families through May 2027. The City also received a $2.5 million Federal Highway Administration Reconnecting Communities Pilot discretionary grant (CFDA 20.940, March 2026) for the REVIVE 35 planning study addressing community disparities created by US Route 35's downtown Dayton corridor.

Customer concentration sits with housing and transportation agencies. The Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development leads by award count (112 awards across multiple formula programs: Community Development Block Grants, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Solutions Grants, and Continuum of Care), followed by the Department of the Air Force (147 awards, predominantly real-property leases), the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration and Great Lakes Region (37 and 30 awards respectively for airport infrastructure), and the Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (29 awards, largely sub-awards through the Ohio Department of Transportation). By potential-value share, the Transportation Security Administration leads (15 awards, $10.9 million combined potential value) for fiber optic cable and utilities services at Dayton International Airport, followed by GSA Public Buildings Service (16 awards, $10.7 million combined potential value) for facility leases.

The City operates under two large indefinite delivery contracts and multiple basic ordering agreements. The primary vehicle is Indefinite Delivery Contract F3360181D0111 with 113 task orders, used for General Services Administration facility operations and maintenance; Basic Ordering Agreement GS05B17937 carries 41 task orders worth $18.8 million combined potential value, also under GSA for building services. A second indefinite delivery contract (F3360181D0114) and supporting BOAs (F3360181D0112 with 33 task orders, GS05B17266 with 38 task orders worth $525 thousand combined potential value) enable facility and utilities work across federal properties in the Dayton region.

Recent activity has grown moderately — 15 awards in 2022 to 29 in 2024, declining to 19 in 2026 year-to-date — with 9 awards completing within the next twenty-four months. The City acts as a sub-recipient on transportation grants passed through the Ohio Department of Transportation (roadway rehabilitation, bike facilities, pedestrian facilities, safety improvements) and the Ohio Department of Public Safety (crime victim services, impaired-driving enforcement task forces, law enforcement training programs).

The City's service portfolio is narrowly concentrated in real-property operations and municipal utilities. NAICS distribution shows Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses) dominating 81 awards, with Water Supply and Irrigation Systems (8 awards) and Sewage Treatment Facilities (2 awards) as secondary categories. PSC coding reflects utilities and facility operations: Utilities-Other (116 awards), Utilities-Water (54 awards), Lease/Rental of Office Buildings (43 awards), Utilities-Gas (35 awards), with minimal professional services activity. All work is performed at or near Dayton-area locations (Vandalia, Ohio; Miamisburg, Ohio; and downtown Dayton proper), with administrative oversight at 101 W Third Street, Dayton, Ohio 45402.
