OpportunityBlair is considering an amended redevelopment plan for the Prairie Sky Apartments project at US Highway 75 and Wilbur Street, using tax increment financing. Phase 1 includes 110 workforce housing units, a city pump station site, and extension of public infrastructure, with future commercial development as Phase 2. The project represents up to $50 million in private investment and significant new tax and sales revenue, setting up multiple follow-on needs for design, infrastructure, utilities, and commercial build‑out once the plan is approved.City of Blair · Jul 2, 2026$50,000,000OpportunityFalls City is negotiating with OPPD to buy out its existing point‑to‑point transmission service and move to SPP Network Integration Transmission Service. The city is also seeking options for an additional 50 MW of transmission access and has identified $35 million in funding for added capacity, redundancy, and reliability. This is a large, multi‑year grid project where engineering, program management, owner’s rep, and construction support vendors can help the city shape scope, delivery, and risk before specific construction contracts are bid.Falls City Rural Fire Protection District · Jun 4, 2026$35,000,000OpportunityThe superintendent discussed a new elementary project with CMBA Architects and the board approved issuing voted general obligation bonds up to $24,980,000. This indicates a large, multi-year construction or major renovation project at the elementary level that is moving into funded design and planning. Construction, engineering, FF&E, and education technology vendors should track this as the district moves from concept with the architect into bid packages and implementation.Stanton Community Schools · Jun 8, 2026$24,980,000OpportunityCentral Community College Foundation approved a major gifts campaign for a new residence hall on the Grand Island campus after a 2026 feasibility study showed strong support. The residence hall has an estimated $21 million construction cost and a $3 million campaign focused on construction and a student housing subsidy endowment, with launch planned for fall 2026-2027. Housing construction, design, FF&E, and student life vendors can engage early as the college shapes scope, financing, and timelines to improve recruitment, retention, and campus culture.Central Community College · Jul 2, 2026$21,000,000130 more pre-RFPs matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →

Recent projects and awards in Nebraska

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

Cass County awarded the construction bid for project STWD-CBMP(10): C-13(940) to Hawkins Construction for $3,518,087.20. The Board authorized the chair to sign, confirming the contract and moving the project into delivery. Contractors, materials suppliers, and specialty subs can target Hawkins for subcontracting, materials, traffic control, and related services during construction.Contract Award · Cass County · Cass County · Jun 30, 2026$3,518,087Lancaster County is executing a contract with Pavers Inc to provide paving for Pine Lake Road between South 112th Street and South 148th Street under Bid 26-124. The contract value is not to exceed 2046964.05 and becomes effective upon execution by both parties, indicating the primary construction award decision has been made. This is a significant roadway capital project that will likely require traffic control, materials supply, testing, and potentially subcontracted services. Vendors can position for change orders, specialty subcontracting, materials supply, construction support services, and future adjacent roadway work in the corridor now that the prime contractor and scope are known.Contract Award · Raymond village · Nebraska · Jun 30, 2026$2,046,964The City of Wahoo has finalized costs and special assessment schedules for the Wilmer Ridge Subdivision improvements, including internal paving, water mains and hydrants, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, and erosion control. The report shows construction completed under a contract with K2 Construction totaling about 2.4 million, with 2.02 million to be recovered via assessments on 78 lots and the balance covered by general obligation funding and developer costs. This indicates the core subdivision infrastructure work has already been awarded and constructed, but assessments will run over 10 years starting September 2, 2026. For vendors, this provides concrete intelligence on the scope of installed systems, the primary contractor, and the cost structure, which can inform timing for follow-on work such as final surfacing, maintenance, repairs, or future phase build-outs. It also flags the City and developer as active buyers in subdivision infrastructure and financing, potentially needing engineering, inspection, asset management, or assessment administration tools in future projects.Contract Award · Town of Wahoo · Saunders County · Jun 28, 2026$2,399,585The city approved a Naming Rights Agreement making BigIron Auction Company the exclusive naming sponsor of the Heartland Events Center, now to be called the BigIron Events Center. The deal guarantees $140,000 per year for at least five years, with potential revenue up to $1,540,000 over eleven years, supporting operations, maintenance, marketing, and capital needs. While the sponsor is set, the increased revenue will likely fund facility upgrades, marketing initiatives, and events. Event technology, facility improvement, and marketing vendors can position for projects that become feasible with this dedicated funding stream.Contract Award · City of Grand Island · Nebraska · Jun 23, 2026$1,540,000The Kearney City Council accepted bids and adopted Resolution 2026-73 awarding the 2026 Part 3 Improvements – Landfill Cells 9 and 10 Construction project to C Lazy B Land Development in the amount of 1962416. This project covers construction of new landfill cells, which is a major capital and environmental compliance investment for the city’s solid waste operations. Although the primary construction contract has been awarded, the scale of the cells project suggests ongoing needs for liner materials, leachate systems, monitoring equipment, and engineering or environmental consulting support. Vendors can position around subcontracting, supply of specialized landfill components, and follow-on phases or maintenance as the new cells are brought into operation.Contract Award · City of Kearney · Nebraska · Jun 23, 2026$1,962,416The Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the County Engineer, recommended awarding a contract to Constructors Inc for resurfacing projects on West Denton Road (Southwest 12th Street to Southwest 56th Street) and Southwest 12th Street (West Rokeby Road to West Denton Road) in the amount of 1,850,965.09. The Board agenda item shows this as the selected vendor and amount for significant roadway resurfacing work. While the primary resurfacing contract decision is made, this project creates demand for traffic control, materials, testing, and possible follow‑on maintenance services. Vendors can approach Constructors Inc for subcontracting opportunities and monitor the County for related projects that may follow as part of a broader pavement management strategy.Contract Award · Davey village · Nebraska · Jun 23, 2026$1,850,965524 more Nebraska projects matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →
