Agnes Tusjak

Agnes Tusjak serves as an Acquisition Agent with USAID/Thailand, where she plays a pivotal role in executing strategic procurement activities that align with the agency’s mission to advance regional resilience across Southeast Asia. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of professional services acquisitions, she ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while delivering technical expertise in public health, environmental sustainability, and governance. Her portfolio primarily supports the deployment of expert consultants and advisory services critical to USAID’s capacity-building initiatives, including malaria eradication programs and climate adaptation strategies. Tusjak’s work directly enables the agency to mobilize specialized talent and technical assistance across complex, multi-stakeholder development environments. While no specific contractor relationships are currently documented in the procurement record, Tusjak engages with a broad spectrum of international and domestic professional services firms capable of delivering high-level technical advisory work. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for experienced, vetted service providers with demonstrated expertise in international development, public health systems strengthening, and communications strategy. She fosters collaborative, performance-based vendor partnerships that prioritize outcome-driven deliverables and adaptive implementation frameworks. Tusjak’s acquisition strategy reflects a 100% preference for non-set-aside contracts, indicating a focus on open competition and global talent sourcing rather than socioeconomic set-asides. This approach underscores her alignment with USAID’s international mission, where the primary criterion for selection is technical merit and regional relevance over socioeconomic classification. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her portfolio, she ensures all procurements adhere to fair and transparent competition principles. Her procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 541990—All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services—encompassing technical advisory services, program evaluation, communications strategy, and capacity-building support. She consistently procures expert personnel for short- and long-term assignments in public health systems, climate resilience planning, and governance reform, demonstrating deep domain expertise in international development programming.
