Olga Luchuk-Vysotska

Olga Luchuk-Vysotska serves as an Acquisition and Assistance Specialist at USAID/Ukraine, where she plays a pivotal role in executing technical assistance and capacity-building procurements aligned with the agency’s mission to strengthen democratic governance, economic resilience, and public health systems in Ukraine. She manages a diverse portfolio of non-construction acquisitions under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, primarily focusing on professional and technical services to support institutional reforms and civil society development. Her work bridges U.S. foreign assistance objectives with local implementation needs, ensuring compliance with U.S. government procurement standards while promoting sustainable, locally-led solutions. Olga collaborates with a broad spectrum of international and local service providers, including consulting firms, research institutions, and technical assistance vendors, to deliver expert support across governance, private sector development, and public service modernization initiatives. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for performance-based, outcome-driven agreements that emphasize measurable impact and adaptive management. She maintains transparent, competitive procurement processes and fosters partnerships with organizations capable of delivering high-quality, context-specific technical expertise in complex operational environments. Her procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with 91.7% of awards issued without set-asides, reflecting the need for specialized, globally competitive expertise. Nevertheless, she consistently allocates 8.3% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured commitment to small business participation without compromising technical requirements. This balance ensures access to niche capabilities while supporting economic inclusion. Olga’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), with significant activity in 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services) and 541618 (Other Management Consulting Services). She routinely procures strategic advisory services, institutional capacity assessments, monitoring and evaluation frameworks, and training programs tailored to Ukraine’s reform agenda, underscoring her expertise in complex, mission-critical technical assistance acquisitions.
