Jodie Dille

Jodie Dille serves as a Contracting Officer for USAID/South Africa, overseeing the acquisition of professional and technical services critical to advancing sustainable development across Southern Africa. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from market research and solicitation to contract award and administration—ensuring alignment with USAID’s mission to strengthen public health systems, promote good governance, and conserve biodiversity. Her portfolio primarily supports technical assistance initiatives, data-driven program design, and institutional capacity building, requiring precise compliance with federal acquisition regulations and U.S. foreign assistance policy. While specific contractor names are not currently available, Dille routinely engages with a diverse pool of professional services firms specializing in systems design, monitoring and evaluation, and policy advisory services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for non-set-aside, open competitions, indicating a focus on competitive, merit-based selection of vendors with proven technical expertise rather than socioeconomic preference programs. She fosters long-term partnerships with firms capable of delivering high-quality, context-specific solutions tailored to Southern Africa’s complex development challenges. Dille’s contracting approach reflects a 100% non-set-aside preference, indicating a strategic emphasis on open competition and technical merit over socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While she does not prioritize designated small business categories, her procurement decisions remain fully compliant with all applicable socioeconomic statutes, and she maintains transparency in vendor selection to ensure value and accountability in U.S. foreign assistance spending. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services) and 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), reflecting deep expertise in procuring digital health platforms, data analytics systems, governance diagnostics, and environmental monitoring tools. She routinely sources technical expertise in HIV/AIDS response systems, civic engagement platforms, and wildlife conservation technologies, ensuring that USAID’s interventions are evidence-based, scalable, and locally owned.
