Kiamichi Housing Auth

Kiamichi Housing Auth, doing business as Kecha, is a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority that receives federal grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to operate and maintain public housing in Tuskahoma, Oklahoma. The organization operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards) under HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no contracting or subcontracting activity.

Kecha's federal footprint is entirely within HUD's formula grant programs for public housing. The organization holds recurring awards under two primary vehicles: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which funds day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which supports housing modernization, development, rehabilitation and energy efficiency upgrades, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and financing activities. Recent awards include a $214,613 Public Housing Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, a $417,101 Public Housing Capital Fund formula grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and earlier capital fund allocations dating back to 2022. All work is performed at the Tuskahoma, Oklahoma location.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Housing and Urban Development accounts for 100% of the 41 awards in the source data, with no sub-award activity and no engagement with other federal agencies. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $11.2 million. Activity has remained flat over the past five years, with two awards per year in 2022 through 2026. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and therefore face potential renewal or recompete in that window. As a formula-allocated grantee within HUD's nationwide public housing system serving approximately 2,770 public housing agencies and nearly one million units across all fifty states and territories, Kecha operates as a direct recipient of HUD funding with no teaming, subcontracting, or contract vehicle participation.
