Judy Webb serves as a Contracting Officer for USAID/Afghanistan (Agency Code 720306), where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurements that advance sustainable development, institutional capacity building, and humanitarian resilience across Afghanistan. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisition activities for technical assistance and program support services, ensuring compliance with federal regulations and USAID’s strategic priorities in governance, education, health, and civil society empowerment. Her portfolio primarily consists of professional and scientific services contracts designed to deliver expert-led interventions aligned with U.S. foreign assistance objectives. Judy Webb collaborates with a diverse array of international and local service providers, including technical consultants, research institutions, and implementation partners with deep regional expertise. While no single contractor dominates her award profile, she consistently engages firms capable of delivering high-complexity, context-sensitive services in fragile environments. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous monitoring, and adaptive management, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in accountability and mission alignment. Ms. Webb’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This underscores a strategic focus on selecting the most qualified providers regardless of socioeconomic status, prioritizing technical capability and operational readiness over set-aside programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Her approach aligns with USAID’s need for specialized, often internationally sourced expertise in complex operational contexts. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services), reflecting her core procurement of advisory, evaluation, and capacity-building services. She also frequently acquires support activities for forestry (115310), indicating engagement in environmental sustainability and natural resource management initiatives. Her domain expertise lies in procuring high-integrity, evidence-based technical services tailored to Afghanistan’s evolving development landscape.
