The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is embracing a new approach when it comes to improving its services. Instead of just talking about all the fancy things they can do, they’re starting to say, “Show us what you’ve got.”

When the VA wants to get new technology or services, it often works with outside companies. But how do they pick the right one? Well, it looks like the VA is changing things up. They’re now asking these companies to prove that they can really do the work they say they can. It’s sort of like saying, “Don’t just tell me you can make awesome cookies, bake some and let me taste them.”

This new “do, don’t say” idea means the VA is focusing more on action. It’s not just about what’s promised in a presentation or written in a report. They want to see the actual results before they make a deal. This can help them make better choices, save money, and get better services for veterans.

By having companies show what they can do, the VA can make sure they’re really getting the help that veterans deserve. After all, people who have served our country deserve the best care and support.
