About the company
San Mateo County Transit District, Development Division, is a local government-owned transit authority based in Millbrae, California, that acts as a prime recipient of Federal Transit Administration grants under CFDA 20.507 (Federal Transit Formula Grants program). The organization executes all federally funded work directly with no sub-recipient pass-through; it is not a federal contractor and holds no contract vehicles.
San Mateo County Transit District's federal grant portfolio centers on transit capital and operational assistance across four concrete capability areas: procurement of zero-emissions buses (hydrogen fuel cell and battery electric vehicles to replace aging diesel fleets), procurement and installation of electric charging infrastructure (including 37 overhead pantograph charging dispensers and associated power distribution networks), ADA-complementary paratransit service operations and vehicle replacement, and multimodal transit corridor planning. Recent representative awards include a $91.4 million formula grant obligated September 19, 2024, for procurement of 68 hydrogen fuel cell buses, 21 paratransit vehicles, and ADA operating assistance through June 30, 2029; a $4.8 million award obligated July 23, 2026, for continued ADA paratransit service operation through September 30, 2027; a $3.6 million award obligated September 18, 2025, for design and construction of electric charging infrastructure and 37 overhead pantograph dispensers with completion by March 31, 2028; and a $2.5 million award obligated April 7, 2026, for development of the El Camino Real Implementation Action Plan and corridor-wide Project Initiation Document as part of the Bus Accelerated Infrastructure Delivery (BUSAID) effort, with completion by June 30, 2028.
Customer concentration is absolute: the Federal Transit Administration accounts for 52 of 57 total awards (91% coverage) spanning the past five years. Activity has remained modest and flat — three awards in 2022, two each in 2023 and 2024, four in 2025, and three in 2026 — with seven awards completing within the next twenty-four months. Combined dollar obligations across all awards total $707 million, reflecting the capital-intensive nature of transit vehicle procurement and infrastructure deployment. As a government entity, San Mateo County Transit District does not hold SBA certifications and does not compete under set-asides.
