Kalkaska Co Road Commission

Kalkaska County Road Commission, a Michigan county local government entity, operates exclusively as a grant sub-recipient, receiving federal pass-through funding from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services for Title IV-D child support cooperative reimbursement programs.

The organization holds no federal contracts, contract vehicles, or prime grant awards. All ten federal awards in its recent portfolio are sub-awards under the Title IV-D Cooperative Reimbursement Program, a federal child support enforcement initiative administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families. Kalkaska County Road Commission's single customer agency is HHS/ACF, which routes Title IV-D funding through the Michigan DHHS as the state pass-through entity. The organization received eight sub-awards in 2023 and two in 2024, with a combined obligation value of $1.4 million across all awards. Awards arrived on October 1 of each year, indicating an annual reimbursement cycle tied to the state's Title IV-D cooperative agreement calendar.

The organization's role centers on administering child support enforcement operations at the county level under Michigan's delegated Title IV-D program. As a county road commission — an infrastructure entity that also carries administrative responsibilities in many Michigan counties — Kalkaska serves as a sub-recipient of federal child support enforcement dollars flowing from HHS through the state DHHS. This funding model places Kalkaska downstream of both the federal grantor and the state intermediary, limiting the organization's direct federal customer relationship and contracting footprint. The organization does not appear as a federal contractor or hold any GSA schedules, GWACs, BPAs, or contract vehicles.

Activity has declined from eight awards in 2023 to two in 2024, though this pattern may reflect a consolidation or restructuring of sub-award reporting by Michigan DHHS rather than operational decline in the underlying Title IV-D program. The organization's federal footprint remains narrow, specialized, and entirely grant-based, with no visible exposure to federal procurement contracts or competitive bidding vehicles.
