Ebony Fultz

Ebony Fultz serves as a Contract Specialist with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where she plays a pivotal role in executing strategic acquisitions that advance global development objectives. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts supporting institutional capacity building, governance reform, and emergency response coordination, primarily procuring professional services to strengthen public sector institutions in partner nations. Her portfolio centers on technical assistance, policy advisory, and educational support services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and USAID’s mission-driven priorities. Fultz’s work directly enables the agency’s ability to deliver sustainable development outcomes through effective procurement planning, source selection, and contract administration. Fultz maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a key contractor providing specialized management consulting and technical support services. Her procurement approach emphasizes long-term, performance-based partnerships with vendors capable of delivering complex, multi-year programs in governance and education sectors. She engages primarily with firms possessing deep domain expertise in international development, ensuring alignment with USAID’s technical requirements and operational needs in diverse global contexts. Fultz’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 87.5% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. However, she actively supports small business participation, allocating 12.5% of acquisitions to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced commitment to both efficiency and socioeconomic objectives. While she does not routinely prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her consistent use of small business set-asides signals a deliberate effort to foster competition and expand opportunities for qualified small firms. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 611710 (Educational Support Services) and 541611 (Administrative Management Consulting), reflecting her specialization in procurement for institutional strengthening, curriculum development, and public sector management advisory services. She also procures related professional services under 541990 and, occasionally, logistical support under 721110, underscoring her expertise in integrating technical assistance with operational infrastructure to support USAID’s global mission.
