Department Of Military Affairs

Department Of Military Affairs, a local government entity based in Barrigada, Guam, receives federal cooperative agreements from the Department of the Army and Department of the Air Force under the National Guard Military Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Projects program (CFDA 12.401) as the prime recipient supporting Army National Guard and Air National Guard facility operations, infrastructure, and authorized service support activities in Guam. The entity operates exclusively as a grant recipient; it holds no federal contracts, contract vehicles, or subcontract relationships.

Department Of Military Affairs' federal award footprint is narrow and concentrated. The entity has received 130 cooperative agreements over its documented history, with ten awards in fiscal year 2025 and a consistent pattern of approximately ten to twelve awards annually over the past five years. All awards are prime cooperative agreements; the entity has no subcontract or sub-recipient relationships. The top customers by award count are the Department of the Army Guam Army National Guard (76 awards) and the Department of the Army National Guard (48 awards), which together account for the entirety of the entity's documented awards. The Department of the Air Force has placed five awards. Combined dollars obligated across all 130 awards total $91.6 million.

Recent award activity centers on recurring, congressionally directed cooperative agreements supporting Guam's military readiness and infrastructure. Representative fiscal year 2025 awards (all dated October 1, 2025, with completion September 30, 2026) include a $11.9 million cooperative agreement for Army National Guard Facilities Program operations and maintenance (CFDA 12.401), a $647,192 award for Army National Guard Security Guard Activities, a $375,475 award for National Guard Military Operations and Maintenance Projects supporting Army and Air National Guard facilities and service support, and a $176,145 cooperative agreement for Air National Guard Facilities Operations and Maintenance Activities. Additional fiscal 2025 awards fund Army National Guard Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Information Management (C4IM) Service, Army National Guard Administrative Services Activities, Army National Guard Emergency Management Program Coordinator activities, Army National Guard Anti-Terrorism Program, Army National Guard Distributed Learning Program, Army National Guard Environmental Programs Resources Management, and Air National Guard Security operations. All cooperative agreements are non-discretionary, congressionally directed allocations; the National Guard Bureau provides mandatory annual assistance to the 50 states, territories, and District of Columbia to support National Guard operations. The Department Of Military Affairs submits annual budgets for National Guard Bureau Program Manager review and negotiation before the Grants Officer executes the final cooperative agreement. The entity's federal awards historically have covered facility sustainment and modernization, environmental management, security operations, anti-terrorism programs, emergency management, distributed learning, administrative services, command and control communications, and information technology infrastructure for National Guard operations in Guam.
