# VA Seeks FY2027 IT Funding

The Department of Veterans Affairs requested $10.7 billion for FY2027 IT systems, including $4.2 billion for federal electronic health record implementation—a 24% increase from FY2026. The request also identifies funding for decision intelligence and automation, including AI development, integration, and governance. These figures are budget requests, not released solicitations or contract awards; the priorities nevertheless indicate potential areas of future VA demand in financial and acquisition systems, identity and access management, cloud hosting, and AI-enabled decision support.

- The requested **$4.2 billion** for EHR implementation is the largest specified investment and signals continued demand for healthcare IT implementation and related services.
- Contractors can use the December 3, 2026 Healthcare Summit to hear from VA and other healthcare technology leaders; it is 35 days away as of October 29, 2026.
- Companies should distinguish budget planning signals from actionable procurement notices: the request does not itself establish a solicitation, award, or vendor selection.
