Nancy L. Hoffman

Nancy L. Hoffman serves as Executive Officer for USAID/Dominican Republic, overseeing the strategic direction and execution of the agency’s procurement portfolio to advance sustainable development and institutional capacity building. In this role, she ensures alignment between contracting activities and USAID’s core missions in public sector reform, health system resilience, and private sector engagement—particularly in HIV/AIDS response and justice sector modernization. She manages a diverse range of acquisition instruments, primarily focused on professional and technical services that support government-to-government partnerships and technical assistance initiatives. Her leadership ensures compliance with U.S. foreign assistance objectives while promoting transparency and accountability in all procurement decisions. While no specific contractor data is available, Ms. Hoffman’s procurement patterns reflect a preference for engaging qualified international and local service providers with demonstrated expertise in development programming, policy advisory, and institutional strengthening. Her working relationships typically involve consulting firms, research institutions, and technical service providers with deep regional experience in Latin American governance and public health systems. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, performance-based engagements designed to build local capacity rather than deliver short-term outputs. Ms. Hoffman’s office exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on selecting the most technically competent providers regardless of socioeconomic status, consistent with USAID’s global procurement guidelines that prioritize programmatic impact over socioeconomic targeting in international contexts. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 812990 (All Other Personal Services) and 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), encompassing contract support for policy analysis, training design, monitoring and evaluation, and technical advisory services. These categories reflect her domain expertise in institutional development, public administration reform, and health systems strengthening—areas critical to USAID’s mission in the Dominican Republic.
