The American Psychological Association (APA) was awarded a task order valued at $24,000 under a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with the Department of Veterans Affairs Headquarters for accreditation services due to be completed by September 30, 2026. This task order, issued on April 7, 2026, is classified as a firm fixed-price contract with no set-aside designation and will be performed in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The work supports the VA Enterprise-wide Psychology Training Accreditation (VEPTA) program, a single-award, non-set-aside BPA valued at $2.91M with a performance period extending through May 2, 2027, under which the VA issues multiple task orders to APA for accreditation services, consulting, and site visits necessary to maintain professional standards in psychology education and training across the VA system.

As the leading accrediting body for psychology programs and training initiatives in the United States, APA provides specialized accreditation services that directly support the VA's mission of ensuring quality assurance and behavioral healthcare standards across its psychology training programs nationwide. The parent BPA, established in May 2022, has been the vehicle through which the VA has issued numerous task orders to APA ranging from $600 to $7.5M for activities including initial applicant reviews, site visits, annual accreditation and facility fees, and comprehensive program support services. This particular April 2026 task order represents ongoing accreditation work under this established contract vehicle, with APA maintaining active contract status as of the award date.
