About the company
Adler University, a private non-profit educational institution based in Chicago, Illinois, delivers tuition and fees for specialized graduate-level psychology and medical training programs to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor, complemented by grant work in criminal justice and pandemic-response education funding. Adler competes full-and-open with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint.
The university's federal capability centers on graduate professional psychology education and training support for military medical personnel. Adler holds a single-award Basic Ordering Agreement (N0018925GZ048) with the Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, effective through April 30, 2035, under which it has issued 31 delivery orders since May 2021 ranging from $1,586 to $52,962 per order. Representative recent prime contract work includes a $52,962 delivery order awarded May 1, 2025 for tuition and fees supporting specialized medical training, a $23,178 delivery order issued May 1, 2026 for psychology and counseling graduate training, and a $22,178 delivery order from September 4, 2025 for fall-term tuition at the Adler School of Professional Psychology. These orders support Navy personnel pursuing advanced education in psychology, counseling, and related medical disciplines.
Customer concentration is extreme and navy-dominated: the Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery accounts for 31 awards worth $570 thousand combined potential value (89% coverage), with the broader Department of the Navy adding 5 awards worth $177 thousand. Federal grant recipients include the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs (4 awards, restorative justice and reentry education sub-awards from the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority), the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education (4 awards, including a $500,483 Education Stabilization Fund grant in 2022), and the Health Resources and Services Administration Bureau of Health Professionals (3 awards supporting graduate psychology education). Adler also serves as a sub-recipient on Justice Programs grants under the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority for restorative justice pilot programming and improving reentry education and employment outcomes.
The Basic Ordering Agreement N0018925GZ048 anchors the vehicle portfolio, carrying 3 task orders worth $71 thousand in potential value. A predecessor BOA (N0018914GZ009) generated 31 task orders totaling $676 thousand combined potential value and represents the cumulative historical deliveries under the Navy partnership. Activity shows cycles across recent years (seven awards in 2022, three in 2023, four in 2024, seven in 2025, two in 2026 year-to-date), with only $23 thousand in combined potential value on awards completing within the next twenty-four months — recompete exposure is minimal. The combined obligated dollars across all awards ($10.7 million) substantially exceed the combined potential value ($747 thousand), reflecting the university's higher historical invoiced spend relative to current-year ceiling values on firm fixed-price delivery orders. Adler's federal engagement is tightly scoped: 91% of awards are prime contracts and grants, with 9% as grant sub-awards; 68% of awards fall under Administration of Education Programs (NAICS) and Education/Training Tuition/Registration/Membership Fees (PSC).
