American Academy Of Pediatrics

American Academy Of Pediatrics Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit professional organization based in Itasca, Illinois, operates as a federal grant recipient and occasional service contractor, delivering pediatric health training, technical assistance, clinical practice guidelines, and research coordination services to federal health agencies with no application of small business set-asides. The organization represents over 67,000 pediatricians and serves as a national leader in pediatric health policy, evidence-based clinical practice, and capacity building for pediatric providers across the public health system.

AAP's federal footprint is heavily concentrated in grant work. The organization holds 201 prime awards (88% of its 228 total awards in the source) across contracts and cooperative agreements, with the remainder split between 27 sub-awards. Its top customer agencies by award count include the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration (29 awards), followed by the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (18 awards, $94 thousand combined potential value), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (14 awards). When ranked by potential value, the Indian Health Service dominates with $2.8 million across nine awards, followed by CDC's Office of Acquisition Services ($772 thousand, seven awards) and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration ($620 thousand, seven awards). These five customer agencies account for 39% of awards by count and 71% of combined potential value.

AAP's active grant portfolio centers on pediatric health system building and clinical training. Recent prime cooperative agreements include a $1.5 million CDC award (August 2024 through July 2029) for the Pediatric Healthcare Clinicians Category C program, delivering capacity-building assistance to pediatricians on public health system integration; a Maternal and Child Health Bureau cooperative agreement (September 2023 through September 2028) for partnerships addressing birth defects, infant disorders, and perinatal health; and a $1.5 million Maternal and Child Health Bureau project grant (April 2024 through March 2029) for the Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) National Network in consortia with the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. AAP also holds a Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration center-of-excellence grant (September 2022 through September 2027) on healthy digital ecosystems for children and youth, a CDC cooperative agreement (June 2022 through May 2027) on school-based health and mental health services, and several Maternal and Child Health Bureau project grants on safe infant sleep systems integration, systems for children with special health care needs, and adolescent and young adult health systems integration.

On the contract side, AAP placed modest purchase orders with the Indian Health Service ($1.388 million ceiling for child health site visits and consultation services, awarded September 2025, extending through September 2030, and $32.6 thousand for a pediatric online resource for the PIMC program, awarded April 2022), the CDC ($48.5 thousand for a pediatric journal supplement under Executive Order 14398, awarded August 2026), and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development ($75 thousand for the Safe Sleep and Naps Using Guidelines to Lead and Educate (SSNUGLE) Quality Improvement Pilot Program, awarded August 2022). These contracts carry no set-aside designations and are firm fixed-price purchase orders.

AAP's sub-award activity reflects its role as a research infrastructure partner to larger academic and nonprofit institutions. The organization performs as a subcontractor to Zero To Three National Center for Infants, Toddlers & Families on multiple cooperative agreements supporting early childhood development systems integration, technical assistance, and policy development; to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Columbia University on pediatric research in office settings (PROS) studies coordinating training, IRB management, and data collection for vaccine effectiveness and clinical guideline implementation trials; to the University of Pittsburgh on suicide prevention optimization in pediatric primary care; and to Research Triangle Institute and the Public Health Institute on clinical practice guideline dissemination. Across these sub-awards, AAP typically provides project coordination, technical assistance delivery, IRB support, practice recruitment and stewardship, data management, and research infrastructure hosting through its PROS network.

SCI-reportable federal service-contract invoicing totaled $478 thousand across fiscal years 2022–2024, with no FY2025 invoicing captured in the dataset. The recorded activity spans five contracts (all prime) with minimal federal workforce engagement — 0.1 FTEs in FY2022, 0.8 FTEs in FY2023, and 0.2 FTEs in FY2024. On those contracts, government-paid hourly rates ranged from $130 per hour at the 10th percentile to a median of $352.70 per hour, with senior labor pricing through $757.60 per hour at the 90th percentile. SCI data covers federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold and does not reflect AAP's grant revenue, which constitutes the bulk of its federal activity.

Activity has grown modestly year over year from six awards in 2022 to twelve in 2025, with four awards recorded in 2026 to date. Ten awards (combined potential value $81 thousand) face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months. AAP competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements and does not hold positions on government-wide IDIQs or GWACs; its two parent vehicles noted in the source (Indefinite Delivery Contracts 223023007 and DAVA0183C0035) each carry a single task order.
