Massachusetts Port Authority

Massachusetts Port Authority, doing business as Massport, a U.S. state government airport and port authority headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, operates as a federal grant recipient (99% of recent awards as prime recipient) focused on airport infrastructure modernization, runway and taxiway rehabilitation, terminal improvements, noise mitigation, port security, and maritime facility planning across three New England airports and the Port of Boston.

Massport's federal footprint concentrates overwhelmingly on project grants from the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) New England Region under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) and related Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act programs. The source lists 87 FAA New England Region awards accounting for $17.9 million in combined potential value, alongside 66 additional FAA awards. Recent representative airport infrastructure work includes a $21.3 million grant (July 22, 2026) to rehabilitate 6,500 feet of Taxiway B at Boston Logan International Airport, a $74.9 million grant (August 15, 2025) to construct runway safety infrastructure including a pier and engineered material arresting system for Runway 9/27 at Boston Logan, a $62.5 million grant (February 8, 2023) to rehabilitate Terminal E (202,000 square feet), and a $15 million grant (December 13, 2024) to rehabilitate a sponsor-owned air traffic control tower. Massport is also recipient of a $1.25 million project grant (October 29, 2024) from the Department of Transportation Maritime Administration under the Port Infrastructure Development Program (CFDA 20.823) for planning and design of the North Jetty Berth revitalization and South Boston Marine Multiport at the Port of Boston, including 30 percent design advancement and geotechnical investigation. The FAA also funded multi-phase noise mitigation initiatives; a $1.476 million grant (August 18, 2026) funds Phase 7 design of insulation measures for 60 residences within the 65–69 DNL contour, part of a broader program targeting 1,300 residences around Boston Logan. Massport also holds project grants from the Federal Emergency Management Agency under the Port Security Grant Program (CFDA 97.056) totaling $2.337 million (September 22, 2022) and $245 thousand (September 1, 2024) for maritime security infrastructure and training at port facilities.

Customer concentration is split between two dominant agencies. The Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration leads by combined potential value at $182.9 million across 29 awards, while the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Central Office Office of Leasing carries $106.8 million across 39 awards. The FAA New England Region appears in both rankings but is anchored to project grant work at lower individual award magnitudes. Massport's obligated-dollar footprint ($1.44 billion) significantly exceeds combined potential value ($442.2 million), reflecting heavy invoicing against prior-year awards and multi-year grant execution.

Massport serves as the prime recipient on 419 of 422 total awards (99%), with only three sub-awards documented (sub-grant activity funded through the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency and a Homeland Security Grant Program active-shooter training award). The top five parent vehicles are Basic Ordering Agreements (BOAs) issued by the General Services Administration under building and facilities-management leasing programs: BOA GS01B04520 carries 40 task orders and $215.7 million in combined potential value, BOA GS01B04268 shows 68 task orders but only $523 thousand combined potential value, and three others round out the leasing infrastructure. Activity has remained steady at 9–15 awards per year over the past five years, with only one award reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating low recompete exposure in the immediate term.

The source classifies Massport's work under two dominant NAICS categories: Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses) accounts for 195 awards, and Fossil Fuel Electric Power Generation for 11 awards. Top PSC codes reflect facility and utility operations: Lease/Rental of Office Buildings dominates at 84 awards, Utilities–Electric at 14 awards, and support services and parking facilities rounding out the profile. This classification pattern reflects Massport's role as owner-operator of federally-funded airport terminals, ground facilities, utility infrastructure, and port assets, not procurement of external goods or services. Massport does not hold federal prime contracts; its federal relationship is entirely grant-based and operationally focused on asset stewardship at Boston Logan International Airport, Worcester Regional Airport, Bedford Municipal Airport, and the Port of Boston in Massachusetts.
