Eka Yosida

Eka Yosida serves as a key procurement professional within USAID/Indonesia, supporting the agency’s mission to advance sustainable development through technical assistance and institutional capacity building. Responsible for managing acquisitions aligned with cross-sectoral development goals, Yosida oversees the procurement of professional, scientific, and technical services critical to strengthening governance, health systems, environmental resilience, and disaster preparedness. Their work ensures that contracting activities align with U.S. foreign assistance priorities, facilitating partnerships between local institutions and global experts to deliver high-impact, evidence-based interventions. Yosida’s portfolio primarily involves complex, performance-based contracts requiring specialized expertise in public health, environmental science, and institutional development. Contractor relationships are characterized by a broad and diverse vendor base, with no single contractor dominating award activity. Yosida engages a wide array of international and local service providers, including technical consultants, research institutions, and implementation partners with domain-specific expertise in HIV/AIDS elimination, tuberculosis control, climate adaptation, and public administration reform. These partnerships are typically structured as task-order contracts under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles, emphasizing flexibility, technical rigor, and local context integration. Yosida’s contracting approach reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of procurements designated as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on selecting the most qualified providers based on technical merit and value, rather than socioeconomic categories. While small business participation is not formally mandated through set-asides, the agency’s reliance on diverse, globally dispersed technical firms naturally fosters inclusion of small and mid-sized enterprises with niche capabilities. The primary NAICS classification for all procurements is 541990—All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services—reflecting a heavy emphasis on advisory, analytical, and implementation services. Yosida consistently procures expertise in health systems strengthening, data analytics for public health outcomes, environmental monitoring, and governance diagnostics, ensuring that technical assistance aligns with Indonesia’s national development priorities.
