Kevin Ulmer

Kevin Ulmer 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 acquisitions aligned with the agency’s global development mission. He specializes in securing professional services that support governance reform, democratic engagement, and public sector strengthening in partner nations. His portfolio centers on contract vehicles for policy advisory, technical consulting, and program evaluation services, ensuring alignment with USAID’s strategic priorities in international development and emergency response coordination. Ulmer maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a primary contractor providing high-level technical and institutional support services. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term, performance-based partnerships with firms capable of delivering adaptive, context-specific solutions in complex international environments. He engages vendors that demonstrate deep expertise in governance systems, electoral processes, and public financial management, fostering collaboration with contractors who can operate effectively across diverse cultural and regulatory landscapes. His contracting patterns reflect a balanced commitment to socioeconomic inclusion, with equal weighting between total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and open, unrestricted competitions. This approach ensures competitive rigor while actively promoting opportunities for small businesses with specialized development expertise. Ulmer’s pattern of set-aside usage underscores a deliberate strategy to leverage the agility and innovation of small firms without compromising mission-critical delivery. He primarily procures services under NAICS 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services) and 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), focusing on expertise in institutional diagnostics, capacity assessment, and policy design. His acquisitions target consultants with demonstrated experience in public administration reform, civil society engagement, and democratic governance frameworks, ensuring USAID’s technical assistance remains evidence-based, locally owned, and results-oriented.
