Maryanne EM Hoirup-Bacolod

Maryanne EM Hoirup-Bacolod serves as Executive Officer for USAID/Cambodia (Agency Code: 720442), providing strategic oversight of procurement activities aligned with the agency’s mission to advance sustainable development and institutional resilience in Cambodia. In this role, she ensures that acquisition strategies support capacity building, civil society strengthening, and locally led development outcomes, with a focus on technical advisory services, education and health communication initiatives, and environmental conservation programs. She oversees the full lifecycle of contracts and cooperative agreements, ensuring compliance with U.S. federal acquisition regulations and USAID’s development effectiveness standards, while fostering transparency and accountability in all procurement decisions. While specific contractor names are not disclosed in available records, Ms. Hoirup-Bacolod’s procurement portfolio consistently engages professional services firms with expertise in development consulting, program management, and operational support. Her working relationships emphasize performance-based contracting with firms capable of delivering adaptive, context-sensitive solutions tailored to Cambodia’s evolving development landscape. She prioritizes vendors with demonstrated experience in cross-cultural implementation, stakeholder engagement, and results-driven monitoring and evaluation frameworks. Ms. Hoirup-Bacolod’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on selecting the most qualified providers based on technical merit and value, rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her approach aligns with USAID’s global emphasis on competitive, results-oriented procurement while maintaining compliance with all applicable federal requirements. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), encompassing technical assistance, research, and advisory services; supplemented by NAICS 541611 (Management Consulting Services) and 561499 (Other Business Support Services). These categories reflect her expertise in securing high-impact, knowledge-based solutions to strengthen governance, public health systems, and environmental stewardship in partnership with Cambodian institutions.
