OpportunityThe County is upgrading its Motorola 800 MHz SmartZone system to an industry-standard P25 radio platform, with a $51M total budget across infrastructure and subscriber equipment. As of March 31, 2026 about $36.4M has been spent, leaving $14.6M, including a $2M contingency and additional Motorola equipment and construction. Public safety communications firms can target backhaul, site work, subscriber programming, coverage testing, and long-term maintenance as implementation continues.county Commissioners Charles county · Mar 31, 2026$51,007,000 OpportunityCharles County is investing $5.86M more in FY2027‑2028 to replace its obsolete Motorola Smartzone 800 MHz system with a P25 platform, atop $51M already appropriated. The Altairis assessment highlighted coverage gaps, capacity issues, and support risks; the upgrade will add interoperability, encryption, and mobile data features. Radio systems integrators, tower and RF designers, and managed services providers can pursue remaining design, construction, and lifecycle support work for this mission‑critical system.county Commissioners Charles county · May 19, 2026$5,857,000 OpportunityCarroll County approved spending authority of $2,500,000 to cover waste tons transferred above the FY26 budget to Modern Landfill. The county projects receiving approximately 180,000 tons of waste, an increase of 40,000 tons over the budgeted forecast, necessitating additional transfer services. This indicates a significant increase in waste volume for Carroll County, which could lead to future needs for waste management services, infrastructure, or consulting on waste reduction strategies. While the spending authority is for an existing contract with Modern Landfill via the Northeast MD Waste Disposal Authority, the increased volume may prompt future strategic planning or procurement for waste solutions.Carroll County · Jun 4, 2026$2,500,000 OpportunityNorth Beach has completed design for the Greenwood and Bay Avenue green infrastructure project (066-90076) and is in the permitting phase after county review and meetings with Calvert County Public Works and Planning. The project is intended to add green infrastructure components to the existing stormwater collection system, enhancing resilience rather than replacing the current collection network. Staff report that once permits are secured, the town can request grant reimbursement for design and then put the construction project out to bid. This positions the green infrastructure implementation as an upcoming solicitation for a contractor experienced in low‑impact development, stormwater retrofits, and possibly landscaping. Environmental, civil, and construction vendors should begin relationship building with Planning & Zoning and DPW to be ready when the RFP/ITB is released.Town of North Beach · Jun 4, 2026$130,000 4 more pre-RFPs matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →

Baltimore County Council is asked on July 6, 2026 to approve two contracts of sale to acquire 1.599 acres of drainage, utility, and temporary construction easements for the Gunpowder to White Marsh Sewer System Improvement project. One $120,980 acquisition from Tinta Mohamed covers 0.831 acre at 4534 Silver Spring Road in Perry Hall (DR-1), and a second $96,800 acquisition from Columbia Capital, LLC covers 0.768 acre at 1465 Mohrs Lane in Middle River (primarily BM), both for permanent easements and temporary construction areas. These are the eighth and ninth of 78 total acquisitions, about 24 of which require Council approval, for a project funded with $211.4 million between FY 2016 and FY 2026, including $205.5 million for construction and $5.9 million for design, permitting, and property acquisition. The stated purpose is to make the County’s sewer infrastructure more resilient and sustainable and reduce raw sewage overflow risk, indicating substantial ongoing and future work for engineering, construction, and related services. Vendors can position for remaining design, construction, rehabilitation, and restoration packages, as well as additional easement-related work and downstream O&M needs as the multi‑year project continues.Contract Award · Baltimore County · Baltimore County · Jul 6, 2026$211,400,000 The City is approving Change Order No. 3 with First Fruits Excavating for the Cumberland Skate Park (City Project 06-13-RE). The change covers removal and replacement of gabion rock to install separation fabric as requested by MDE to satisfy permit closeout, in an amount not to exceed 3060.29, bringing the total project cost to 808912.63. This shows that the skate park project is near completion and dealing with permit conditions rather than new scope. For vendors, it confirms First Fruits Excavating as the primary contractor and highlights MDE’s involvement, which can inform future pursuits involving similar parks or recreational facilities requiring erosion control and environmental compliance features.Contract Admin · City of Cumberland · Maryland · Jun 24, 2026$808,913 The City of Cumberland is amending a prior order for the purchase of bituminous concrete materials for Street Department paving projects from Belt Paving, Inc. and/or IA Construction. Due to higher than expected vendor production costs and completion of additional in-house paving projects, the not-to-exceed amount is being increased by 200000 to a new cap of 600000. This reflects ongoing and possibly expanded street resurfacing activity rather than a new competitive bid, with Belt Paving and IA Construction already positioned as suppliers. Vendors in asphalt supply, paving services, inspection, or related materials can treat this as evidence of an active paving program with potential for future bid cycles or supplemental services as streets projects continue to grow in scope.Contract Award · City of Cumberland · Maryland · Jun 24, 2026$600,000 Creating and expanding tree pits throughout the city.Bidding Authorization · City of Baltimore · Baltimore city · Nov 6, 2024$3,889,440 General Obligation Bond for Water System Centralization and ModernizationBidding Authorization · Town of Hampstead · Carroll County · Oct 8, 2024$3,000,000 Roadway paving services for selected city streets.Contract Ratification · Town of Manchester · Maryland · Oct 15, 2024$3,125,957 166 more Maryland projects matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →
