OpportunityThe Chelmsford Parker School Building Committee voted on April 16, 2026 to select Option A2-2, a new construction grades 4–6 configuration on the existing Parker Middle School site, as the preferred option for the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) Preferred Schematic Report. Preliminary cost ranges for new construction options were presented between roughly 198800000 and 353800000, with A2-2 scoring highest on the committee’s evaluation matrix against educational, community, environmental, energy, and cost criteria. The team is now preparing a 500+ page PSR documenting feasibility, alternatives analysis, preferred solution, schedule, and budget to submit to MSBA by April 29, 2026, with Facilities Assessment Subcommittee review expected May 13 or 20 and schematic design submission targeted for October 2026. Local funding approval is anticipated at the 2027 Spring Town Meeting or a special Town Meeting, meaning detailed design, cost refinement, and project delivery strategy (including procurement methodology and building systems choices such as partial geothermal and solar for potential net-zero) will be developed over the next 12–18 months. For vendors in school construction, engineering, sustainability systems, commissioning, furniture/fixtures/technology, and community outreach or cost-estimating support, this is an early-stage but clearly defined major capital project where standards, systems, and bid packaging are still being shaped.East Chelmsford Water District · Apr 16, 2026$353,800,000OpportunityThe CFREE working group discussed $250M in unused National Grid net metering credits, including $65M tied to public entities, and Rodman is seeking a partner to help pursue solutions. The group does not yet know how the public-entity portion can be accessed or monetized. This is an early-stage opportunity for energy consultants or utility advisors to help the town analyze eligibility, structure projects or PPAs, and navigate National Grid and state program rules.Town of Lincoln · Feb 11, 2026$250,000,000OpportunityWilmington is advancing a new consolidated PreK-5 school (Option PK-5 N.1) for 755 elementary plus 100 Pre-K students on the North Intermediate site, selected as the preferred alternative in the MSBA feasibility study. A Preferred Schematic Report was submitted Oct 24, 2024, with schematic design to run through May 2025 and MSBA funding and local debt votes targeted by Fall 2025, and construction starting Summer 2027 with move-in Summer 2029. This is a large, multi-year capital build that will drive upcoming procurements for CM-at-Risk or DBB construction, site/civil work, technology, furniture, security, food service equipment, and specialized educational spaces.Wilmington Public Schools MA · Oct 24, 2024$215,200,000OpportunityWilmington acknowledges new cost estimates of up to $215.2 million for the Wildwood Building Project, far above the original OPM RFP range based on 2018-2020 data. The town confirms it has bonding capacity at the higher figure, but final spending will require formal town voter approval. This is a major K-12 facilities project still in planning, creating needs for design support, cost management, construction services, and education-focused building systems as scope and budgets are refined.Wilmington Public Schools MA · Jun 5, 2024$215,200,000363 more pre-RFPs matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →

Recent projects and awards in Massachusetts

Contract awards and project updates from public meetings, largest and newest first.

The Select Board will consider renewing contract cleaning services with Compass Facilities Services for $1,528,820. This is a major multi-facility janitorial contract, and Compass is positioned as the incumbent. Facility service providers can use this to understand current pricing and timing, and to prepare for future rebids, specialty cleaning, or add-on services while the town continues to rely on outsourced cleaning.Contract Award · Town of Belmont · Middlesex County · Jun 29, 2026$1,528,820The Watertown Housing Authority secured $1,500,000 in CPA funding for Phase II construction of a five-bedroom group home at 103 Nichols Avenue, to be operated by Beaverbrook Step for adults with developmental disabilities. This follows an earlier $175,000 CPA award for predevelopment, and the project includes a fully accessible first floor with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, storage, and staff office space on the second floor. The home will be all-electric, built with high-efficiency materials, and equipped with solar panels, and will be supplemented by Facilities Consolidation Fund financing and a WHA mortgage supported by Department of Developmental Disabilities-approved rents. While the core funding and operating partners are in place, vendors in high-performance residential construction, accessibility features, and renewable energy systems may find opportunities via WHA’s procurement for the build and could position for similar future small-scale group home projects in the city.Contract Award · City of Watertown · Middlesex County · Jun 25, 2026$1,500,000Boston Housing Authority details active elevator modernization at Ruth Barkley Apartments, with contracts for maintenance and repairs with Schindler Elevator, modernization with H.J. Russell Co. and United Elevator, and backup services from Motion Elevator. Over $7 million is being invested across four buildings, part of more than $20 million in elevator capital projects portfolio-wide. While primary contracts are set, there is multi-year work where subs, accessibility consultants, and capital planning firms may find follow-on roles.Contract Award · City of Boston · Massachusetts · Jun 24, 2026$7,000,000On June 24, 2026, Reading School District’s board approved adoption of Carnegie Learning English Language Arts curricular resources and related professional development for grades 6-12. The adoption runs from 2026 through 2033 at a cost not to exceed $3,059,544, funded with State dollars. This establishes Carnegie Learning as the core secondary ELA curriculum and PD provider for seven years, indicating a long-term instructional shift and likely needs for implementation support, assessment alignment, and supplemental tools. Vendors should view this as incumbent intelligence and look for complementary offerings such as literacy interventions, assessment platforms, and interoperability services that can layer onto a Carnegie Learning environment without displacing the core program.Contract Award · Reading School District · Middlesex County · Jun 24, 2026$3,059,544The Board approved a major contract amendment setting a $104,147,601 guaranteed maximum price with Consigli Construction Co. for construction of the new Our Island Home facility. This advances the nursing home replacement into full build mode following prior preconstruction work. Construction and trades firms now have a defined GC and budget, creating potential subcontracting, specialty systems, and furnishings opportunities tied to the multi‑year build.Contract Award · Town of Nantucket · Nantucket County · Jun 24, 2026$104,147,601The Town approved a $6,097,879 agreement with Pearl Construction, LLC for design and installation of modular municipal employee housing at 15 Waitt Drive. The project runs from June 24, 2026 to May 31, 2028 and aims to expand workforce housing stock. Modular building, site work, furnishings, and building systems vendors can approach Pearl and Town Administration to support unit interiors, utilities, and long‑term operations.Contract Award · Town of Nantucket · Nantucket County · Jun 24, 2026$6,097,879418 more Massachusetts projects matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →
