Admir Serifovic

Admir Serifovic serves as a Contracting Officer for USAID/Uganda, where he plays a pivotal role in executing strategic procurements aligned with the agency’s mission of fostering sustainable development and institutional self-reliance. He manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions for technical assistance, monitoring and evaluation, and localized service delivery programs in health systems strengthening, governance, and ecosystem management. His portfolio primarily supports evidence-based programming under U.S. government development initiatives, including PEPFAR-related health interventions. Serifovic ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while promoting transparency, accountability, and local capacity building through competitive and performance-driven contracting practices. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Serifovic maintains a broad network of professional service providers, including international and local firms delivering consulting, technical advisory, and implementation support. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for firms with demonstrated expertise in development sector delivery, particularly those capable of integrating local context into program design and execution. He fosters collaborative vendor relationships grounded in performance metrics, adaptive management, and compliance with USAID’s development effectiveness standards. Serifovic’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects USAID/Uganda’s operational emphasis on selecting the most qualified providers regardless of socioeconomic status, prioritizing technical capability and program impact over socioeconomically targeted set-asides. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, he ensures equitable access to opportunities through open solicitations and transparent evaluation criteria. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), encompassing program evaluation, capacity building, and technical advisory services. He also procures IT infrastructure and support services under NAICS 423430 and 561990, alongside transit and logistics support under NAICS 485999. His expertise centers on complex, multi-year development contracts requiring high levels of technical rigor, local stakeholder engagement, and adaptive implementation frameworks.
