Michael Aguilar

Michael Aguilar serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where he supports the agency’s mission to strengthen international governance, democratic institutions, and public sector capacity through strategic acquisitions. He manages a portfolio of technical assistance and institutional support contracts, primarily focused on policy advisory services, capacity-building initiatives, and emergency response coordination. His acquisitions are designed to enable partner governments and civil society organizations to enhance transparency, accountability, and service delivery, aligning closely with USAID’s broader development objectives. Aguilar maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a primary contractor providing specialized technical support in governance reform and institutional strengthening. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, requiring contractors to deliver measurable improvements in public administration, electoral systems, and civic engagement. The partnership reflects a long-term, mission-aligned collaboration grounded in technical expertise rather than commodity procurement, with a focus on adaptive management and local ownership. Aguilar’s contracting patterns show a 100% preference for non-set-aside procurements, indicating a focus on open competition and global best practices rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his award patterns, his acquisitions remain accessible to qualified domestic and international vendors through full and open competition under FAR Part 15 procedures. His primary procurement activity falls under NAICS 921190—Other General Government Support—reflecting deep expertise in procuring high-level policy advisory services, governance diagnostics, institutional assessments, and technical training programs. He specializes in engagements that require nuanced understanding of political economy, public finance reform, and democratic governance frameworks, ensuring that contracted services directly advance USAID’s strategic objectives in fragile and transitioning states.
