Market Intelligence

See where federal funding is moving — before procurement systems show it.

Track House CPF and Senate CDS funding by chamber, agency, state, and project category. Every chart answers a business question: where should you be focused next?

FY2022–FY2026 enacted and requested data. FY2027 request windows are already forming.

What this page helps you answer

  • Which agencies are receiving the most earmark-directed funding?
  • Where requested Senate CDS activity signals future demand.
  • How House CPF and Senate CDS patterns differ by year and chamber.
  • Which funding categories may become grant, procurement, or construction opportunities.
  • Where a BD team, grant writer, lobbyist, or AEC firm should focus next.

Why these trends matter

CPF and CDS projects are visible before many traditional procurement or grant opportunities appear. FFID helps teams identify funded recipients, member priorities, agency patterns, and geographic demand earlier than SAM.gov or downstream award databases.

  • Requested projects reveal demand before final appropriations.
  • Enacted projects show what became law.
  • Agency momentum reveals where congressional priorities are shifting.
  • Repeat recipients may indicate ongoing capital programs.

Request Pipeline vs Enacted Funding

The gap between requested and enacted is where market intelligence lives.

Requested projects show demand before final appropriations. Enacted projects show what became law. The gap between the two reveals where competition, political support, and future opportunity are forming. Requested records are pipeline signals — not guaranteed funding.

Where is congressional appetite growing fastest?

Year-over-year House CPF and Senate CDS activity — where directed spending is expanding and where the forward pipeline is building.

House CPF — enactedHouse CPF — requested (not yet enacted)Senate CDS — enactedSenate CDS — requested (not yet enacted)

So what?

What changed

House CPF enacted declined -100% from FY2022 to FY2025 — from $7.1B to $0.0B. Senate CDS enacted declined -87% FY2022–FY2024. The FY2026 Senate active pipeline is $48.9B.

Why it matters

Both chambers are directing more funding each cycle. The Senate requested pipeline shows demand before appropriations are finalized — giving teams lead time to identify funded recipients before the market forms.

Who should care

AEC firms and BD teams building annual pursuit pipelines. Lobbyists tracking member CPF/CDS patterns on behalf of clients. Grant consultants advising on competitive timing.

So what?

What changed

DOT and Army Corps lead all agencies by total enacted earmark dollars FY2022–FY2026. HUD, EPA, and HHS round out the top five. A ↑ Rising trend signals increasing congressional direction toward that agency lane.

Why it matters

Agency dominance reveals where capital programs are concentrated. Firms tracking agency momentum can identify funded recipients — and the services they will need — before procurement windows open.

Who should care

AEC firms and engineers organized by agency lane (water, transportation, housing). BD leaders building vertical market strategies. Government affairs teams with agency-specific policy focus.

Key insights

House CPF declined (-100%)

House Community Project Funding declined -100% from FY2022 to FY2026 — from $7.1B to $23.0B. Project count declined from 3,018 to 5,304.

Senate FY2026 pipeline: $48.9B

FY2026 Senate CDS requests total $48.9B across 13,555 projects — the active forward pipeline. At ~20% historical enactment rate, roughly $9.8B is expected to become law when appropriations are finalized.

Senate CDS enacted declined (-87%)

Senate CDS enacted funding declined -87% from FY2022 to FY2024 — from $26.1B to $3.4B across 1,940 projects. FY2025 Senate funding was permanently frozen under P.L. 119-4 (Full-Year CR) and will not have enacted data. FY2026 enacted data pending appropriations.

DOT dominates transportation

Transportation earmarks peaked at $5.6B in FY2024 before moderating. Still the largest cumulative agency across five fiscal years of enacted data.

FY2027 Context

FY2027 request windows are already forming.

Congressional offices typically begin assembling CPF and CDS requests well before appropriations cycles open. The teams that are already building relationships with funded recipients, tracking active members, and understanding agency patterns now are the ones positioned to win when FY2027 funding is directed.

The FY2022–FY2026 data on this page is the intelligence base. Every trend you see represents funded recipients, active members, and agency priorities that will continue shaping the FY2027 cycle.

State Momentum

Where should your BD team focus first?

Enacted + requested combined · All fiscal years · Click any state to search its projects

So what?

What changed

A small number of states account for a disproportionate share of total earmark funding. The request pipeline tab shows where demand is building before the next appropriations cycle.

Why it matters

High-activity states have the most funded recipients to pursue. Teams that focus geographically can build relationships before competitors see the procurement — and before the RFP makes the opportunity public.

Who should care

AEC firms planning territory coverage and BD pipelines. Grant consultants advising municipal and nonprofit clients by state. Lobbyists tracking delegation funding on behalf of clients.

Project Category Trends

Enacted Requested pipeline

So what?

What changed

Transportation, water/environment, and education consistently lead by total dollars. Healthcare, housing, and flood control show significant requested pipelines — sectors where demand may be building before appropriations are finalized.

Why it matters

Category trends reveal where congressional priorities are concentrating by sector. Categories with large requested pipelines and lower enacted ratios may signal emerging opportunity — the window before the RFP cycle opens.

Who should care

AEC firms and consultants organized by project type (water, roads, public facilities, transit). Grant consultants advising nonprofits and municipalities on sector-specific requests. BD teams building vertical market focus.

Why it matters

Organizations receiving earmarks repeatedly across fiscal years often have ongoing capital programs, established congressional relationships, and future project needs. AEC firms, vendors, grant writers, and lobbyists can use recipient momentum to identify organizations most likely to need services before RFPs are issued. A multi-year badge indicates the recipient has received funding in more than one fiscal year.

Why it matters

Members with consistent multi-year CPF/CDS activity often reflect district infrastructure priorities and established appropriations relationships. Lobbyists, government affairs teams, and consultants can use member patterns to understand where congressional priorities are concentrated and which offices are most active in directing federal funding to their districts.

Signals Worth Acting On

Trends are useful only when they lead to action.

FFID connects macro funding movement to the underlying projects, recipients, members, agencies, and states behind the numbers.

  • Rising requested funding may indicate future appropriations pressure — track it now, not after enactment.
  • Repeat recipients may signal ongoing capital programs your team can pursue.
  • Agency growth reveals where congressional priorities are shifting before RFPs appear.
  • State-level concentration can guide territory planning and outreach.
  • Sector momentum helps BD teams prioritize before the competition catches up.
