Program Trend — FY2008 to FY2026

Every funding round on one axis. The program has run in three distinct regimes: a small pilot (2008), a one-time $98M Recovery Act surge (2009 ARRA), and a ~$10–20M annual steady state that stepped up sharply in FY2026. Bars are the selected metric; the selected round is highlighted.

Gaps are real. Congress appropriated nothing in 2014 and 2015, so those years have no round and appear nowhere on this axis. Click any bar to change the selected round.

Cumulative Roll-Up — Program to Date

Running totals through each round. Bars are the round; the line is program-to-date.

Where the Money Goes — Capital-Asset Taxonomy

Every award is classified by the primary capital asset its project description names. This is the analysis MARAD does not publish: the program is, in dollar terms, overwhelmingly avessel-handling and steel-fabrication program. Values are direct-labeled so the chart reads without relying on colour; the full classified record is in the award table below.

Capital-Asset Mix Over Time

Share of each round's dollars by asset class. Drydock and haul-out infrastructure spikes when a round is large enough to fund one; lifting and handling is the constant.

Geography — State Competition

Top 15 states for the selected scope. Small-shipyard capacity is concentrated on the Gulf Coast and the Pacific Northwest, but the program reaches inland river and Great Lakes yards that few other federal maritime programs touch.

Award-Size Distribution

Where awards actually land. The practical ceiling has moved with the appropriation: roughly $1.0M in 2016–2020, $1.2M in 2022–2023, and $1.5M in FY2026.

Demand & Oversubscription

Dollars requested against dollars awarded, for the seven rounds where a dollar figure exists anywhere in the public record. Two further rounds have an application count but no published dollar total — FY2019 (80 applications) and FY2022 (93). FY2026 drew172 applications requesting $162.7M, the most of either in program history.

The odds improved, but demand set a record. Oversubscription ran 10×–16× in the small-appropriation years (FY2011–FY2016) and has since fallen to 4.6× in FY2026 — not because fewer yards applied, but because the appropriation quadrupled. On a per-applicant basis the picture is the mirror image: a roughly 1-in-13 chance of an award in FY2016 versus about 1 in 4 in FY2026. Even so, FY2026 left roughly $128M of requested capital unfunded.

Provenance. MARAD has never published the applicant list its own NOFOs promise — FY2024 §H.2 and FY2025/FY2026 §J.2 each state it "intends to publish a list of all applications received along with the names of the applicant organizations and funding amounts requested." The figures here are assembled from DOT press releases (FY2011–FY2016), the SAM.gov Assistance Listing 20.814 Program Accomplishments note (FY2019, FY2022), GAO-25-107304 (FY2023, FY2024) and trade press (FY2026). FY2017, FY2018, FY2020, FY2021 and FY2025 have no published figure at all.

FY2026 NOFO — How the Program Actually Selects

From the FY2026 Notice of Funding Opportunity (DTMASSG26, Assistance Listing 20.814). The award history above tells you what wins; this tells you how it is scored. Applications were dueMay 11, 2026 at noon EDT, with awards announced by July 10, 2026 — the statute (46 U.S.C. §54101(b)(3)) requires MARAD to award within 120 days of the appropriations act.

Merit weighting — where the points are

NOFO sectionCriterionWeight
D2(c)Quantitative AnalysisHigh
D2(b)NeedMedium
D2(a)DescriptionLow
D2(d)Methodology & TimelineLow
D2(e)ItemizationLow
D2(f), D2(g), F2(b)NEPA, domestic preference, additional considerationsLow

One criterion carries the round. Quantitative Analysis is the only High-weighted item, and the NOFO says so outright: applications "should focus on Section 2 … especially Section 2(c), to offer the best chance of an award." It asks for benefits quantified in man-hours saved, dollars saved or percentages, with the methodology, assumptions and justification spelled out. A vivid equipment description scores Low no matter how well written.

Hard screens & tie-breakers

EligibilitySingle geographic location; ≤1,200 production employees; applicant must be the operating company; facility builds, repairs or reconfigures vessels ≥40 ft (commercial/government) or ≥100 ft (non-commercial).
Cost shareFederal share ≤75%. Third-party in-kind contributionsdo not count toward the 25% match. Evidence of ability to fund the match is a responsiveness screen, not a scoring item.
One shotOne application per applicant, one award maximum — but an application may bundle multiple projects, prioritized in the budget table.
Ineligible usesNo constructing buildings or other physical facilities; no land acquisition. Funded items must be new and owned by the recipient. Costs incurred before grant execution are ineligible without prior written approval.
Large-yard capNo more than 25% of available funds may go to yards with more than 600 production employees at one location.
Tie-breakersAmong projects of similar merit, MARAD may prefer (i) non-federal match above the 25% floor and above competing applications; (ii) domestic-content purchases needing no waiver; (iii) innovative technology — new in FY2026.

What changed for FY2026. Three things: the innovative-technology preference was added, a Program Evaluation clause was added, and Section H was updated for federal anti-discrimination policy. Domestic preference under 46 U.S.C. §54101(d)(2) applies toevery award, including those under $500,000, notwithstanding DOT's 2023 Buy America small-grant waiver.

The appropriation math. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026 (P.L. 119-75, Feb. 3, 2026) appropriated $35M; MARAD may retain up to 2% for administration, leaving $34.3M for awards. The 45 FY2026 awards total $35,137,023— about $0.8M more. The NOFO explains it: unexpended prior-year Small Shipyard Grant funds may be awarded under the same notice, so deobligated money from earlier rounds gets recycled forward.

Repeat Recipients — Who Keeps Winning

243 distinct shipyards have won at least once; 83 have won more than once and a meaningful minority have won three or more times. Names are matched across rounds through a normalization pass (legal-suffix stripping, d/b/a collapsing, and a hand-maintained alias table for renamed and acquired yards).

427 of 427 published line items · $355,630,892

Coverage is complete; reconciliation is near-exact. All 427 awards across all 18 rounds, FY2008 through FY2026, summing to $355,630,892 in line items against $355,675,882 in MARAD's published round totals. 15 of 18 rounds reconcile to the cent. The 3 that do not: FY2013 under by $2,014, FY2016 over by $1, FY2026 under by $42,977 — FY2026 because MARAD quotes a rounded $35.18M, FY2013 and FY2016 from rounding in the published round total. This page uses the line-item sum wherever awards are added up and MARAD's figure wherever their total is quoted.

Methodology & FAQ

What is the Small Shipyard Grant Program?
Formally "Assistance for Small Shipyards," 46 U.S.C. §54101, authorized in the FY2006 National Defense Authorization Act and first funded in FY2008. MARAD makes competitive grants for capital and infrastructure improvements — cranes, travelifts, drydocks, CNC and plasma cutting, blast-and-coat systems, facility upgrades — and for maritime training. Eligibility is limited to shipyard facilities with fewer than 1,200 production employees; the federal share is capped at 75% of estimated project cost, leaving a 25% non-federal match. In earlier rounds MARAD reserved at least 75% of grant dollars for yards with fewer than 600 employees.
What does the Small Shipyard Grant Analytics dashboard show?
Every Small Shipyard Grant award from the program's first funded round in FY2008 through FY2026 — $355.7M across 427 grants to 243 distinct shipyards in 18 rounds — with the funding trend by round, cumulative roll-up, a capital-asset taxonomy of what each grant bought, asset mix over time, state distribution, award-size distribution, demand and oversubscription statistics, repeat-recipient analysis, the FY2026 NOFO merit weighting, and a sortable table of every award.
Why are there no awards in 2014 and 2015?
Congress appropriated nothing for the program in FY2014 and FY2015. It restarted with the FY2016 appropriation, which at $4.9M was the smallest round in program history. Those two years are shown as gaps rather than zeros throughout.
Why is 2009 split into two rounds?
Because MARAD treats it that way. FY2009 carried both a regular Omnibus appropriation ($17.15M to 14 yards) and a separate American Recovery and Reinvestment Act round ($98M to 70 yards) — by itself more than a quarter of every dollar the program has ever awarded. Blending them would distort every per-round average on this page, so they are kept distinct.
How is the capital-asset taxonomy built?
Each award's published project description is matched against an ordered set of keyword patterns, most specific first, and assigned the first matching class as its primary asset. Every matching class is also retained as a secondary tag, so an award for "a travelift and a CNC plasma table" counts once in the dollar chart (under Lifting & Handling) but is discoverable under both. Awards whose published description is genuinely generic — "equipment for increased productivity" — are classed as General Equipment & Modernization rather than forced into a category. The classifier is code, not hand-edited: re-running it on new data reproduces the same result.
How are repeat recipients identified?
Recipient names are normalized — legal suffixes stripped, ampersands and punctuation folded, "X d/b/a Y" collapsed to X — and then run against a hand-maintained alias table covering renamed, acquired and re-branded yards (Aker Philadelphia → Philly Shipyard; Alaska Ship and Drydock → Vigor Alaska; Trinity Marine → Arcosa; VT Halter and ST Engineering Halter → Halter Marine; Ice Floe → Nichols Brothers, and others). Multi-site operators that MARAD awarded separately in the same round are counted as one recipient winning once in that round.
Is the record complete, and does it reconcile?
Yes on completeness: all 18 rounds carry full award-level detail, 427 line items in total. On reconciliation, 15 of 18 rounds match MARAD's published round total to the cent. Three do not: FY2026 is $42,977 below MARAD's figure because MARAD quotes a rounded $35.18M against 45 line items summing to $35,137,023; FY2013 is $2,014 below and FY2016 is $1 above their published totals, both rounding in MARAD's own reporting. The hardest round to recover was FY2010: MARAD's historical page still carries a 2010 heading, but the awardee and map links are long dead and no press account reproduced the list. Those 17 awards were rebuilt from USASpending prime assistance transactions under Assistance Listing 20.814, obligation FY2010, all dated April 15, 2010, and sum to exactly $14,700,000 — matching MARAD's published FY2010 total.
Why is the applications data so patchy?
Because MARAD does not publish it, despite saying it will. The FY2024 NOFO (§H.2) and the FY2025 and FY2026 NOFOs (§J.2) each state that MARAD "intends to publish a list of all applications received along with the names of the applicant organizations and funding amounts requested." No such list has ever appeared, for any year. The nine figures shown here were assembled from DOT press releases, a four-sentence Program Accomplishments note in the SAM.gov Assistance Listing, a 2025 GAO report, and trade press. FY2017, FY2018, FY2020, FY2021 and FY2025 have no published figure at all. GAO-25-107304 (June 2025) separately found that MARAD does not document its selection rationale and does not notify unsuccessful applicants, and recommended it start doing both.
Where does the Small Shipyard Grant data come from?
MARAD and USDOT award announcements, awardee tables and press releases for every round FY2008 through FY2026, supplemented for older rounds by contemporaneous trade-press reproductions of the MARAD release (Maritime Executive, Marine Log, MarineLink, gCaptain, WorkBoat, Professional Mariner, Journal of Commerce) and by member-of-Congress announcements of individual awards. FY2010 was reconstructed from USASpending prime assistance transactions under Assistance Listing 20.814. Every round's line items were summed against MARAD's published round total as a completeness check.
Should I trust the SAM.gov listing figures for award size?
No. The SAM.gov listing's "Range and Average of Financial Assistance" says awards can be any amount up to $20,000,000, and Grants.gov metadata for FY2026 showed a $1,000,000 award floor and ceiling. Neither matches reality — FY2026 awards ran from $4,185 to $1,534,953. The listing's eligibility threshold (600 employees) and its FY2018 accomplishment figure are also stale or wrong. Use the NOFO PDF and the award record, not the listing fields.
