Patrick Mudd

Patrick Mudd serves as a Contracting Officer for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where he manages the acquisition of technical assistance and institutional capacity-building services critical to global development objectives. He is responsible for executing full lifecycle procurement actions in support of governance reform, democratic engagement, and public sector strengthening initiatives abroad. His portfolio primarily encompasses professional services contracts aligned with USAID’s mission to enhance institutional resilience in partner nations, with a focus on consulting, training, and policy advisory services delivered through competitive and non-competitive contracting mechanisms.

His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and results-driven deliverables, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors possessing deep expertise in international development contexts. He frequently collaborates with contractors that offer integrated solutions in governance, economic policy, and institutional training, ensuring alignment with USAID’s strategic priorities and compliance with federal acquisition regulations. His procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 70.6% of awards issued without set-asides, while maintaining a meaningful commitment to small business participation—23.5% of awards are structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and 5.9% are competed under the 8(a) program. This balance demonstrates a strategic approach to leveraging market capacity while advancing socioeconomic goals in alignment with federal mandates. Mudd’s primary NAICS focus areas include 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and 541611 (Administrative Management Consulting), underscoring his specialization in governance consulting, institutional diagnostics, and capacity-building training. He also procures language instruction and professional development services (611630 and 611430), reflecting USAID’s emphasis on localized, culturally responsive technical assistance.
