Annette Tuebner

Annette Tuebner serves as a Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative (COTR) for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA. In this critical role, she provides technical oversight and performance monitoring for complex procurement actions supporting international governance and institutional capacity building. She ensures contract compliance with federal acquisition regulations and USAID’s mission-driven objectives, focusing on advisory services that strengthen public sector institutions in partner nations. Her acquisitions predominantly involve professional and management consulting services, where she evaluates technical proposals, tracks deliverables, and coordinates with program officers to align contractor performance with strategic development goals. Ms. Tuebner maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, the primary contractor supporting USAID’s technical assistance initiatives. Her engagements reflect a long-term, performance-based partnership model centered on high-level administrative and management consulting services. She collaborates closely with this vendor to ensure deliverables meet rigorous standards for policy analysis, institutional diagnostics, and governance reform support, often in complex international environments. Her approach emphasizes accountability, outcome measurement, and adaptive management in contract execution. Ms. Tuebner’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on selecting the most technically qualified providers regardless of socioeconomic status, prioritizing expertise and performance over socioeconomic targeting. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her portfolio, her evaluations remain grounded in merit-based selection criteria aligned with USAID’s technical requirements. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 541611—Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services. She specializes in acquiring strategic advisory services related to public sector reform, democratic governance, institutional strengthening, and policy design. Her technical domain expertise lies in evaluating consulting firms capable of delivering evidence-based interventions in fragile and developing contexts, ensuring that technical assistance directly advances USAID’s mission of sustainable development and good governance.
