Andrew Sheridan

Andrew Sheridan serves as a Junior Procurement Support Coordinator (Jr PSC Recruiter) within the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA. In this role, he supports the end-to-end acquisition lifecycle for technical assistance and institutional capacity-building initiatives aligned with USAID’s mission of strengthening global governance and public sector resilience. His responsibilities include coordinating solicitation development, vendor outreach, and contract administration for non-personal services that enhance institutional effectiveness in partner nations. He primarily handles acquisitions under the Other General Government Support NAICS category, focusing on policy advisory, democratic engagement, and emergency response coordination services. Sheridan maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a key contractor providing specialized technical support for governance and institutional reform programs. His procurement pattern reflects a reliance on established, non-small business vendors with proven capacity to deliver complex, mission-critical services abroad. While he collaborates with a limited pool of contractors, his engagements are characterized by structured compliance with federal acquisition regulations and a focus on performance-based outcomes. Sheridan’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of procurements conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic alignment with USAID’s operational priorities, which often require specialized expertise not readily available within the small business base. His approach prioritizes technical capability and global reach over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with the agency’s international mission requirements. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 921190—Other General Government Support—encompassing services such as institutional assessments, governance diagnostics, capacity-building training, and policy implementation support. He specializes in acquiring technical assistance that strengthens public administration systems in low- and middle-income countries, demonstrating deep familiarity with the nuances of international development contracting and the unique compliance demands of foreign assistance programs.
