County Of Clackamas

County of Clackamas, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Oregon City, Oregon, operates as a federal grant recipient and contractor across homelessness response, community development, law enforcement dispatch, landscaping, and emergency management services. The county acts as a prime recipient on federal grants (67% of awards) and as a sub-recipient routing federal funds through Oregon state agencies and local partners (33% of awards), with no federal contract prime or IDV vehicles in its portfolio.

The county's footprint is dominated by grant work rather than competitive federal contracts. HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development anchors the award count at 174 grants concentrated in the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), Emergency Solutions Grants (CFDA 14.231), and HOME Investment Partnerships (CFDA 14.239). Recent prime grant awards include a $191,357 Emergency Solutions Grant formula award (December 5, 2025, through December 4, 2027) supporting street outreach, emergency shelter, homelessness prevention, and rapid rehousing; a $910,234 HOME Investment Partnerships grant (December 5, 2025, through September 30, 2034) for affordable housing development and supportive services; and multiple Continuum of Care project grants ranging from $105,933 to $436,377 awarded throughout 2025 and 2024. The county also received a $500,000 project grant from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2026) for school-based behavioral health and substance use juvenile justice prevention programming, and an $800,000 grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance (October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2027) under the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Education, Investigation and Prosecution Program to establish a District Attorney Community Advisory Council and bias crimes multi-disciplinary team. Additional recipients include the Administration for Children and Families (29 awards), the Administration for Community Living (25 awards supporting aging services under the Older Americans Act), and SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Treatment ($600,000 treatment court expansion grant awarded September 30, 2024).

On the contract side, the county holds minimal exposure. It operates law enforcement dispatch services for the U.S. Forest Service Region 6 and Bureau of Land Management Oregon-Washington Region through small purchase orders: a $31,552 firm fixed-price purchase order issued July 1, 2026 for dispatch contract services supporting law enforcement and investigative operations at Mt. Hood National Forest (performance through June 30, 2027); and an $820,857 BLM purchase order (December 19, 2024, running through December 31, 2029) for law enforcement services supporting the Northwest Oregon District. The county also provides landscaping services to the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration at Willamette National Cemetery through blanket purchase agreement calls, including a $22,500 call (February 1, 2024 through January 31, 2025).

The county receives substantial sub-awards routed through Oregon state agencies. Prime grantees include the Oregon Department of Housing and Community Services (delivering weatherization readiness, direct client services, administrative support, and energy education for HUD-funded homelessness and housing programs), the Oregon Department of Human Services (aging and Older Americans Act services delivery), the Oregon Department of Transportation (infrastructure and complete streets projects including ferry ramp enhancements and traffic signal safety upgrades), the Oregon Health Authority (public health and mental health financial assistance agreements), the Oregon Department of Justice (victim services), the Oregon Military Department (disaster recovery and emergency management), and the Oregon Department of Emergency Management (emergency preparedness grants). Recent sub-awards include infrastructure support for housing services (September 30, 2024), Section 5310 demand response transportation for older adults and people with disabilities (December 9, 2025), and multiple capital project sub-awards for the Canby Ferry and local transportation safety improvements awarded through the Oregon Department of Transportation in 2024 and 2025.

Activity has remained steady across 2022–2025, ranging from 41 to 56 awards per year, with total awards reaching 464 across all federal sources. Combined potential value stands at $2.2 million, but obligated dollars total $287.9 million, indicating heavy grant execution and sub-award pass-through relative to contract values. The recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months is minimal—only 10 awards with combined potential value of $32 thousand reaching completion. The county's NAICS concentration clusters in police protection (10 awards), landscaping services (7 awards), administration of general economic programs, telephone answering services, and public finance activities, reflecting its role as a local government service provider and grant fiscal intermediary for federal homelessness, housing, aging, emergency management, and justice programs across Clackamas County.
