Franklin County Regional Delivery System

Franklin County Regional Delivery System is a county government entity in Benton, Illinois that acts as a sub-recipient of federal postsecondary career and technical education grants from the Illinois State Board of Education, the state pass-through agent for federal funds under the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act (Perkins V).

The organization has received three federal grant sub-awards over the past three years, all tied to Perkins V career and technical education (CTE) programming in Illinois. The first sub-award arrived on August 16, 2024; the second on September 10, 2025; and the third on August 17, 2026. Combined obligation across all three sub-awards stands at $273 thousand. All awards flow through the Illinois State Board of Education as the prime grantee, with the Department of Education Office of Career Technical and Adult Education as the ultimate federal source agency. Franklin County Regional Delivery System operates exclusively as a grant sub-recipient; it holds no prime federal contracts, IDVs, or grant awards, and it does not appear on any federal contract vehicles. The vendor's sole customer relationship is with the Department of Education at a rate of roughly two sub-awards per fiscal cycle. The consistent annual cadence (one award per year in 2024, 2025, and 2026) and the formulaic nature of Perkins V passthrough funding suggest stable baseline activity, though the sub-award dollar values and scope remain within the sub-million range and confined to state-directed CTE program support.
