The VA IT budget, traced from appropriation to the phase it funds.

Office of Information & Technology · Department of Veterans Affairs

OIT runs the technology behind VA care and benefits. Its money is one appropriation — Information Technology Systems (account 0167) — split by statute into three phases: Development (build), Operations & Maintenance (run), and Pay. This monitor keeps those three reconciled to the dollar against the published subtotal, and surfaces the shift underneath a flat account: the FY2027 request tilts toward building.
