City Of Glendale

City of Glendale, a U.S. local government municipality headquartered in Glendale, Arizona, acts as a prime contractor and grant recipient across refuse and recycling services, facility rentals, emergency response support, and infrastructure planning for federal agencies, with no socioeconomic set-asides across its prime awards. The city has secured 141 prime awards (80% of its 176-award footprint) and serves as a sub-recipient on 35 federal grant awards (20%) flowing through Arizona state agencies and the City of Phoenix.

The city's federal contract portfolio centers on refuse and recycling services. Its anchor vehicle is a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (FA488722D0003) valued at $12.28 million with the Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command, awarded April 1, 2022, with completion through September 30, 2031. Under this parent contract, City of Glendale has issued six delivery orders totaling $2.3 million in combined potential value, with individual task orders ranging from $143,610 to $546,430. Recent examples include a $546,430 delivery order issued October 1, 2024 (completion September 30, 2025) and a $516,268 delivery order issued October 9, 2025 (completion September 30, 2026), both for refuse and recycling services at Luke Air Force Base. The Defense Health Agency also issued a $17,755 delivery order against this parent contract on October 1, 2025. The city additionally holds a smaller Indefinite Delivery Contract (FA488716D0004) with six task orders valued at $1.5 million combined potential value. Beyond recurring waste management work, City of Glendale has provided fire dispatch services ($6,043 purchase order to Air Education and Training Command in March 2026) and facility rentals for federal training programs, including a $47,568 rental of its Public Safety Training Facility driving track and classrooms to the Department of Agriculture Forest Service for the Southwest Engine Academy (awarded January 20, 2026; completion February 5, 2026) and a $40,844 facility rental to the Forest Service for a 40-person training facility in November 2023.

Customer concentration leans heavily toward defense and civilian infrastructure. The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command accounts for 16 awards with $17.7 million combined potential value—99% of the city's total contract dollar value. The Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development leads by award count with 36 awards, followed by HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office with 18 awards; these two HUD offices together account for 55% of all awards but carry minimal dollar value relative to Air Force work. The city serves 22 distinct federal agencies overall, with secondary customer relationships at the Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation (8 awards), the Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Assistance (13 awards), and the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (13 awards).

Federal grant activity dominates the city's portfolio by award count and dollar scale. City of Glendale is a prime recipient on 25 federal grants totaling approximately $8.9 million across programs including FEMA's Assistance to Firefighters Grant (CFDA 97.044; $2.7 million award September 26, 2024 for equipment, training, and firefighter wellness), the DOJ Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Hiring Program (CFDA 16.068; $1 million award October 1, 2025 for law enforcement officer hiring through September 30, 2030), HUD's Emergency Solutions Grant (CFDA 14.231; $206,672 formula grant September 18, 2025 for homelessness prevention and emergency shelter operations), the Federal Highway Administration's Safe Streets and Roads for All program (CFDA 20.939; $799,992 award May 28, 2026 and $799,834 prior award for active transportation planning), the Federal Aviation Administration's Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106; $2.27 million project grant July 28, 2023 for apron reconstruction at Luke Air Force Base; $255,000 Phase 1 design grant September 18, 2025; $771,848 master plan update grant August 25, 2025), and HUD Community Development Block Grants (CFDA 14.218). The city also received a $2 million EPA Region 9 cooperative agreement (January 1, 2024; completion October 31, 2026) for design and construction of emergency water supply interconnections to the City of Phoenix. As a sub-recipient, the city receives pass-through funding from Arizona state agencies (Department of Economic Security, Department of Public Safety, Department of Health Services) and the City of Phoenix for social services, crime victim assistance, forensic science, and emergency management programs totaling roughly $9.2 million across 35 sub-awards.

Solid waste collection dominates the city's NAICS profile (14 awards) and PSC coding (14 awards under Housekeeping—Trash/Garbage Collection), aligned with its Air Force waste management contract base. Secondary capabilities include water supply and irrigation systems (8 awards coded to PSC Utilities—Water), fire protection services (2 awards), facility leasing (2 awards), and telecommunications support (2 awards). The city's grant work extends across emergency management, law enforcement, homelessness prevention, water infrastructure, aviation facility maintenance, energy efficiency, and community development.

Activity has grown modestly. The city received 11 awards in 2022, 16 in 2023, 22 in 2024, declining to 14 in 2025 and 6 to date in 2026. Nine awards with combined potential value of $534 thousand face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, exposing modest recompete risk. The city's obligated dollars ($123.1 million) substantially exceed combined potential value ($18.1 million), indicating substantial prior-year delivery against larger contract vehicles now fully exercised or completing.
