About this opportunity

The Department of Defense is seeking applicants to establish APEX Accelerators through cooperative agreements under the Procurement Technical Assistance program. The APEX Accelerators will provide free procurement technical assistance to businesses to help them obtain federal, state, and local government contracts, including identifying opportunities, assisting with certifications and submissions, advising on contracts and subcontracts, and training on relevant laws, systems, and procedures. Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofits, state/local governments, and tribal governments. Evaluation criteria will emphasize past performance, program execution capability, and cost. The anticipated Notice of Funding Opportunity will be posted in July 2024 with a likely submission deadline in early October 2024.

Up to 95 new APEX Accelerator awards totaling $750,000 to $1.5 million each will be made for one-year periods of performance beginning around April 2025. Accelerators may serve either a single service area or an entire Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) service area. Funding may cover both distressed and non-distressed geographical locations.
