Jerome Robinson

Jerome Robinson serves as a key procurement lead within USAID/Bangladesh, managing complex technical assistance and capacity-building contracts aligned with the agency’s mission of sustainable development and institutional strengthening. He oversees the acquisition of professional services critical to advancing economic resilience, governance reform, and environmental sustainability across Bangladesh’s agriculture, trade, finance, and urban infrastructure sectors. His portfolio primarily consists of performance-based, results-driven contracts awarded under full and open competition, reflecting USAID’s emphasis on evidence-based programming and technical excellence. Robinson’s work ensures that contracting mechanisms directly support long-term development outcomes through strategic partnerships with qualified service providers. His primary contractor relationships center on AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a trusted partner delivering high-impact management consulting and technical services. Robinson’s procurement pattern reflects a preference for established, mission-aligned firms with demonstrated expertise in development programming, institutional capacity building, and sector-specific technical support. He engages vendors capable of delivering integrated solutions across multiple domains, often requiring multi-disciplinary teams with deep regional knowledge and experience in USAID’s operational frameworks. Robinson’s contracting activity is exclusively conducted under full and open competition, with no set-asides designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. This reflects USAID/Bangladesh’s strategic focus on selecting the most technically qualified providers regardless of business size or certification, prioritizing program impact over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in his portfolio, all procurements adhere to federal transparency and competition requirements. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and 541618 (Other Management Consulting Services), encompassing strategic planning, monitoring and evaluation, policy advisory, and systems strengthening services. He routinely procures technical assistance for governance reform, financial inclusion initiatives, climate-resilient agriculture programs, and urban planning interventions, requiring deep domain expertise in international development and adaptive management methodologies.
