Arpi Shotigian Moskovitch

Arpi Shotigian Moskovitch serves as a key procurement lead within USAID/South Sudan, managing critical acquisitions that sustain U.S. government operations in one of the world’s most complex humanitarian environments. Responsible for ensuring the continuous functionality of diplomatic and development infrastructure, she oversees contracts for life support systems, technical maintenance services, and mission-critical equipment. Her work directly enables the safe and uninterrupted operation of U.S. presence by securing essential goods and services that underpin institutional resilience and operational continuity in austere conditions. She handles a diverse range of acquisitions, from logistics and infrastructure support to specialized technical assistance required for program implementation. While specific contractor names are not currently available, Moskovitch engages with a broad spectrum of vendors capable of delivering high-reliability, rapidly deployable solutions in conflict-affected regions. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in expeditionary environments, including firms skilled in modular construction, power generation, and secure communications. She maintains a results-driven contracting approach, prioritizing performance-based outcomes and operational readiness over cost alone, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in adaptability and compliance with U.S. government standards. Moskovitch’s contracting portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on maximizing capability and responsiveness in a high-risk, low-infrastructure operating environment, where specialized expertise often outweighs socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her award patterns, her procurement decisions remain fully compliant with federal acquisition regulations and emphasize mission-critical performance above all. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 335312 (Motor and Generator Manufacturing) and NAICS 517312 (Wireless Telecommunications Carriers), indicating deep expertise in procuring power generation systems and secure, resilient communications infrastructure. She specializes in acquiring ruggedized electrical systems, mobile power units, and satellite-enabled networks essential for sustaining operations where local utilities are unreliable or nonexistent. Her technical domain expertise centers on mission-critical engineering solutions that ensure uninterrupted U.S. government functionality in fragile states.
