About the company
American Psychological Association, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Washington, DC, operates as a prime federal contractor and grant recipient providing psychology training accreditation services, professional databases, and fellowship programs to federal agencies on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside designations. APA's federal footprint centers on accreditation, membership fees, database subscriptions, and workforce-development grants; the vendor holds no parent IDVs and competes primarily through direct purchase orders and single-award blanket purchase agreements.
APA's customer concentration is dominated by the Department of Veterans Affairs Headquarters, which accounts for 42 awards valued at $29.8 million in combined potential value across the top five agencies—roughly 80% of the vendor's identifiable federal dollar base. The VA relationship anchors on a single-award BPA (valued at $2.91 million, running through May 2027) under which APA delivers enterprise-wide psychology training accreditation services, including applicant reviews, site visits, accreditation fees, and program standardization across VA psychology training programs nationwide. The Department of Health and Human Services Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration ranks second by potential value at $1.9 million across 11 awards, followed by the Social Security Administration ($297 thousand), the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons ($144 thousand), and the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery ($75 thousand). Recent contract work includes a $567,920 VA site-visit BPA call (June 2026), a $12,652 Defense Health Agency accreditation fee (August 2026), a $73,195 Social Security Administration PsycINFO/PsycARTICLES database subscription (June 2026, subsequently terminated), and a $23,342 Nuclear Regulatory Commission electronic-database single-site license (July 2023).
Activity has averaged roughly 11 awards per year over the past five years (2022–2026), with 18 awards in 2024 and 6 awards in 2026 year-to-date. The vendor faces minimal recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months (three awards, $152 thousand combined potential value). On the grant side, APA holds prime federal grant awards as recipient from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education (conference support for two-year college psychology educators, $650 thousand, and introductory psychology initiative, both project grants), the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (Minority Fellowship Program in Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services, five-year cooperative agreement running through September 2029), and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (15th International Work, Stress, & Health Conference, cooperative agreement, completed August 2024). APA also holds a sub-grant position under The University Corporation's NSF award supporting the EMBARC program (Equity Metrics for Broadening Reach and Completion).
The SCI-reportable federal service-contract base is limited: $1.7 million in total invoiced revenue across six records from FY2023 through FY2025, with a steady footprint of roughly 3.4 FTEs per year. Government-paid hourly rates on these contracts cluster tightly around $88/hr median, with a range from $82/hr (10th percentile) to $89/hr (90th percentile), consistent with professional services and accreditation support work. The vendor performs all recorded SCI work as prime (zero sub-hours share), indicating no use of subcontractor labor on these reportable contracts. APA's federal award portfolio spans 74 distinct customer agencies, yet concentration at the VA—both through the single-award BPA and through smaller direct purchase orders from VA field medical centers and correctional facilities—accounts for the overwhelming majority of both contract count and dollar value. The vendor competes on the open market with no set-aside or federal vehicle constraints, positioning it as a specialized non-profit accreditor rather than a general-purpose federal contractor.
