David G Lavine

David G. Lavine serves as a Contract Specialist with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where he plays a pivotal role in executing strategic procurements aligned with the agency’s mission of advancing global governance, economic resilience, and institutional capacity building. He manages the full lifecycle of acquisition actions for professional and technical services, ensuring compliance with federal regulations and USAID’s development objectives. His portfolio primarily encompasses complex, performance-based contracts requiring specialized expertise in public sector reform, digital infrastructure, and policy advisory services, often supporting mission-critical programs in partner nations. Lavine maintains consistent contracting relationships with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a key vendor delivering technical assistance and systems integration services. His procurement approach emphasizes collaboration with firms capable of delivering high-complexity, results-driven solutions in governance and digital transformation. He engages with a mix of large prime contractors and small business partners, fostering long-term vendor relationships built on performance accountability and mission alignment. His contracting patterns reflect a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately half of his awards structured as 8(a) competed set-asides and the other half as open, unrestricted procurements. This dual approach enables targeted support for disadvantaged businesses while maintaining flexibility to secure specialized capabilities from the broader market, demonstrating a deliberate strategy to enhance small business participation without compromising program outcomes. Lavine’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), with significant activity in 518210 (Computing Infrastructure and Data Services) and 541618 (Other Management Consulting Services). He routinely acquires services related to institutional strengthening, digital governance platforms, data management systems, and policy analysis—domains requiring deep technical proficiency and contextual understanding of international development environments.
