What Vermont agencies are planning

Upcoming projects, grants and hiring found in council minutes and budget hearings, before the solicitation.

OpportunityGMT’s FY27 Capital Budget Adjustment memo outlines a significant reconfiguration of its bus replacement program, shifting previously planned battery-electric procurements under a VTrans Low-No grant into diesel‑electric hybrid buses and continuing separate electric bus and charging projects with other funds. The plan includes four new 40' hybrid heavy‑duty buses, three 40' diesel heavy‑duty buses (New Flyer), and two 35' battery‑electric heavy‑duty buses carried forward from FY26, all funded through a mix of FTA 5339/CRP, state match, and local capital. The Board is being asked to approve the adjusted capital budget and authorize the General Manager to execute purchase orders under existing Vermont Public Transportation Association contracts, with a not-to-exceed $2,250,000 order for three New Flyer diesel buses and additional FFY27 5339 and state funds in FY28. This is a multi‑year fleet modernization effort that creates opportunities for OEMs, component suppliers, charging vendors, telematics/diagnostics providers, and implementation consultants to align solutions with GMT’s evolving hybrid and electric strategy.Chittenden County Transportation Authority · Jun 16, 2026$14,489,057 OpportunityThe Town of Stowe Selectboard is being asked on June 24, 2026 to respond to an emergency structural failure of the Weeks Hill Road bridge by both imposing a 5-ton load limit and funding a full superstructure reconstruction. Staff recommend appropriating 1 million dollars from General Fund Capital Reserves for a project that will remove the existing deteriorated deck and girders and replace them with 32-inch prestressed concrete NEXT beams, aiming for an accelerated bridge construction window in late fall with a 4–6 week full closure. The Board is also asked to waive normal bidding requirements to accept a 308,614 dollar proposal from J.P. Carrara & Sons for design, fabrication, and delivery of the NEXT beams, while authorizing staff to solicit and negotiate proposals from VTrans prequalified bridge contractors for the construction work. This means the precast supplier is likely locked in, but the prime bridge construction contract and several excluded scopes (off-loading and erection, traffic control, railings, membranes, paving, temporary protections, etc.) are still to be sourced from qualified contractors and subs. Vendors in bridge construction, traffic control, river protections, paving, rail systems, and related services should position quickly with Public Works and Calderwood Engineering, as staff explicitly note that finding a contractor willing and available for late-fall accelerated construction will be challenging and is not yet assured.Town of Stowe · Jun 24, 2026$1,001,000 OpportunityThe adjusted FY27 capital budget introduces a 315464 line item for “Replacement SSTA 5310 Paratransit Vehicles” alongside continuing investments in SSTA lease‑supported assets and rural paratransit services. In the May check register, GMT also shows large recurring payments to SSTA (over 226k and 232k in separate EFTs) for ADA and E&D rides and to Community Rides Vermont and others, signaling ongoing reliance on contracted paratransit providers. Together, this indicates a funded plan to refresh the 5310 paratransit fleet that supports SSTA and other partners, likely via existing statewide contracts referenced in the capital memo (VPTA agreements). Vehicle OEMs and upfitters focused on cutaway buses and accessible vans, as well as paratransit technology vendors, can track this program to support forthcoming vehicle orders, options, and associated equipment such as lifts, securement systems, and MDTs.Chittenden County Transportation Authority · Jun 16, 2026$315,464 OpportunityThe Hinesburg Selectboard discussed authorizing the Town Common Committee to order new playground equipment but delayed approval. Board members want a complete budget, including maintenance costs, and clarity on remaining invoices before any purchase. This is an early-stage parks project where equipment, installation, drainage work, and long-term maintenance planning are still being defined.Town of Hinesburg · Jun 17, 2026$138,000 11 more pre-RFPs matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →

Recent projects and awards in Vermont

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

The Grand Isle Consolidated Water District reviewed bid tabulations for its Pipeline Replacement Construction Project and, based on A&E’s analysis, selected Courtland Construction as the recommended contractor. The project total is approximately 1586000 for the base work including Tibbeau Terrace, with the overall project expected to be close to 2000000, partially funded through a state program and 375000 from the district’s reserve fund. State approval of the contractor selection is still required, and the board voted to issue a conditional award to Courtland Construction pending this approval, with a pre-construction meeting identified as the next step. Monthly invoices estimated at about 200000 will be paid by the district and reimbursed by the state on a roughly three‑week cycle. For vendors, this confirms Courtland as the incumbent prime on a multi‑million‑dollar pipeline replacement program, opening potential opportunities for subcontracting, materials supply, construction support services, and future phases or related system upgrades.Contract Award · Grand Isle Consolidated Water District · Grand Isle County · May 20, 2026$2,000,000 On May 27, 2026 the Selectboard accepted a $347,408.73 paving bid from Pike Industries for several road segments: Craftsbury Road from the Grange to town center (including planing and storm drain inlet repairs), East Street from town center to Bend Road, Cemetery Ridge Road repaving, and Breezy Avenue from town center to Country Club Road with full-depth reclamation and base coat paving plus storm drain inlet repairs. The town is also in line to receive an approximately $150,000 VTrans paving grant and has $200,000 allocated for paving in FY27, making this project part of a multi-year resurfacing program. This award identifies Pike Industries as the incumbent paving contractor and highlights planned future work on Breezy Avenue tied to anticipated storm drain and sidewalk improvements that may require another full-depth reclamation. Civil contractors, utility engineers, and sidewalk/streetscape designers can treat this as a timing signal for follow-on drainage and sidewalk projects along this corridor, as well as future competitive windows when Pike’s term concludes or the next paving grant is deployed.Contract Award · Town of Greensboro · Orleans County · Jun 10, 2026$347,409 HVAC system replacement and grouping project at the high schoolStatus Update · Saxtons River village · Vermont · Jan 23, 2024$3,017,275 The Town received bids on May 14, 2026 for the structural rehabilitation of the historic Parker Barn at 805 Weeks Hill Road, as part of the Mayo Farm Management Plan priority to preserve Wade Meadows and Parker Barn. Two bids were submitted, with Grafted Builders proposing a total of 314,243 including alternates, substantially lower than Tim Meehan Builders at 482,645. The agenda recommends awarding the contract to Grafted Builders for 314,243 and authorizing the Town Manager to sign the agreement, funded by FY26 and FY27 capital project allocations totaling 450,000. Additional out-of-scope needs include establishing electrical service, storage container rental, and interior cleaning estimated at about 25,000, which may be handled via separate purchasing actions or small contracts. This presents follow-on opportunities for vendors providing temporary power, electrical work, storage solutions, cleaning services, and historic building construction support while offering intelligence on the main structural contractor and multi-year preservation funding.Contract Award · Town of Stowe · Lamoille County · May 27, 2026$314,243 On May 27, 2026 the Selectboard approved the purchase of a new John Deere road grader for $259,544, reflecting a price of $344,544 less an $85,000 trade-in allowance. Bids were received for both Deere and Caterpillar graders, but the road foreman favored Deere due to the ability to reuse the existing wing and dozer blade and superior service history. This decision identifies John Deere (and its dealer) as the grader equipment incumbent and signals Greensboro’s ongoing investment in its highway fleet. Heavy equipment dealers and service providers can use this information to anticipate future opportunities around attachments, telematics, preventive maintenance contracts, operator training, and eventual replacement of other units in the fleet. Competing OEMs now know the pricing context and decision rationale for future bid attempts.Contract Award · Town of Greensboro · Orleans County · Jun 10, 2026$259,544 The Town evaluated bids received on May 21, 2026 for replacement of a Highway Department loader, including an add alternate for a snow pusher and trade-in of a 2012 Deere 624k loader. Based on the combination of base bid, Add Alternate 1 (snow pusher), and trade-in value, United Construction & Forestry (Deere) submitted the lowest bid and staff recommend awarding the purchase at a net cost of 245,475. The loader was scheduled for replacement in the FY 27 Equipment Fund, where 295,000 had been budgeted, so the award comes in under the planned amount. While the main equipment purchase decision is made, this signals United Construction & Forestry as the incumbent supplier for future loader accessories, parts, and service, and shows the Town’s preference for Deere equipment over competing brands. Vendors can position follow-on offerings such as maintenance, training, telematics, or attachment upgrades, especially as the unused budget capacity may be available for related needs.Contract Award · Town of Stowe · Lamoille County · Jun 10, 2026$245,475 23 more Vermont projects matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →
