Opportunity Information: Apply for DOD20262APEXACCELERATORIDAHO
The APEX Accelerator-Option Period for Existing Award Recipients opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DOD20262APEXACCELERATORIDAHO) is a discretionary Department of Defense funding announcement administered by ACC-APG-Aberdeen Division A. It supports the continued operation of Idaho APEX Accelerators, with the goal of keeping in place an established procurement technical assistance resource for businesses across the state. The emphasis is on helping both large and small companies, including brand-new startups, navigate government contracting and related procurement requirements so they can compete more effectively for public-sector opportunities.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the government expects substantial involvement during the project period rather than a hands-off grant relationship. The program area is categorized under Business and Commerce, and it is associated with CFDA number 12.002. The announcement is specifically framed as an option period for existing award recipients, indicating it is aimed at maintaining and extending current APEX Accelerator operations rather than launching a brand-new, open competition for first-time providers.
Eligible applicants include a broad range of public and nonprofit entities that commonly operate economic development and technical assistance programs. This includes state, county, city or township, and special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations other than institutions of higher education. These eligibility categories align with the kind of organizations that typically host APEX Accelerator services and provide counseling, training, and outreach to local businesses seeking to enter or expand in government procurement.
The financial scale of the opportunity is substantial. The award ceiling is listed at $1,500,000, and the government anticipates making up to two awards. While the ceiling reflects the maximum potential amount, actual award values can vary depending on the approved scope of work, negotiated budget, and the specific objectives and deliverables for the Idaho APEX Accelerator operations during the option period.
The application deadline (original closing date) is January 31, 2026, and the notice states that no extensions will be granted. A practical administrative detail is also highlighted: applicants and recipients are instructed to save the FY26 performance and financial reporting templates for use during the period of performance because the announcement will be archived 30 days after the closing date. In other words, once the posting is archived, it may be harder to retrieve those templates from the original listing, so the program is signaling early that recipients should download and retain the required reporting forms for ongoing compliance and reporting throughout the award period.Apply for DOD20262APEXACCELERATORIDAHO
