George Serapis Irby

George Serapis Irby serves as a key procurement lead within the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where he manages technical assistance and institutional capacity-building contracts aligned with global governance and economic resilience objectives. He specializes in securing consulting services that strengthen public sector institutions in partner nations, focusing on strategic policy advisory, program design, and governance reform initiatives. His acquisitions primarily support USAID’s mission to enhance democratic engagement and emergency response coordination through evidence-based technical interventions, making him a central figure in advancing institutional development through federal contracting. Irby maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC as his primary contractor, leveraging their expertise in high-level management consulting and technical advisory services. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established firms with demonstrated experience in international development contexts, often engaging vendors capable of delivering cross-sectoral solutions across governance, public administration, and institutional assessment. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, performance-based engagements rather than transactional purchases. While the majority of his acquisitions—72.7%—are unrestricted, Irby demonstrates a notable commitment to small business participation, with 27.3% of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. He does not routinely utilize specialized socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, but his consistent use of small business set-asides signals a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity within the consulting services ecosystem. His procurement focus is overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services), accounting for 80% of his activity, with additional support in other scientific and technical consulting services (541690) and broader professional services (541990). He routinely procures strategic planning, organizational diagnostics, capacity assessments, and policy implementation support—core competencies essential to USAID’s mission of building resilient, transparent, and accountable public institutions abroad.
