About the company
Positive Approach LLC, a woman-owned small business based in Efland, North Carolina, delivers dementia care training and certification services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor, operating under sole-proprietorship and structured as a limited liability company. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designation on recent awards, though one early purchase order invoked the Total Small Business set-aside category.
Positive Approach LLC's federal footprint consists entirely of Positive Approach to Care (PAC) training and certification delivery — a specialized curriculum for VA staff caring for veterans with dementia. The vendor holds four prime purchase orders across two distinct VA customer entities. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 9 (VISN 9), serving the Tennessee region, awarded two orders: a $51,731.68 firm fixed-price purchase order commencing April 1, 2026 and extending through March 31, 2027, to deliver PAC training and certification to 19 designated trainers at the VA facility in Franklin, Tennessee (Total Small Business set-aside), and an $18,860 purchase order dated August 1, 2025, for PAC training and certification through July 31, 2026 (no set-aside). The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 placed two purchase orders: a $23,094.96 firm fixed-price contract awarded July 1, 2023, ending June 30, 2024, for Positive Approach to Care Service training, awarded as a sole-source contract because Positive Approach LLC is the sole entity licensed to provide the specific trainings and certifications required.
Customer concentration is entirely within the VA: VISN 9 accounts for two awards and $70.6 thousand in combined potential value; VISN 12 accounts for two awards and $48 thousand. Combined obligated dollars total $119 thousand across four awards classified under NAICS 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training) and PSC U008 (Education/Training—Training/Curriculum Development). Two awards, with combined potential value of $71 thousand, reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure in that window. The vendor operates as a prime contractor exclusively (100% of awards) with no subcontract footprint in the source data.
