Sandro Carrillo

Sandro Carrillo serves as a Contract Specialist within the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where he plays a pivotal role in executing strategic procurement actions aligned with the agency’s global development mission. He manages the full lifecycle of technical assistance contracts, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and USAID’s policy frameworks. His portfolio centers on securing expert consulting services to strengthen institutional capacity, governance systems, and democratic governance in partner nations. Carrillo specializes in non-construction, professional services acquisitions, particularly those requiring deep technical expertise in public sector reform, policy analysis, and emergency response coordination. Carrillo maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a primary contractor providing high-level technical advisory services across multiple development sectors. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, outcome-driven deliverables, and rigorous contractor oversight to ensure alignment with USAID’s strategic objectives. While he engages with a limited number of key vendors, his partnerships are characterized by long-term engagement, collaborative performance management, and adherence to quality assurance protocols. Carrillo’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his awards issued under no set-aside status. He does not routinely utilize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, instead prioritizing technical merit and institutional expertise in source selection. His approach underscores a mission-driven focus on outcome delivery over socioeconomic targeting. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 541690—Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services—encompassing governance advisory, institutional strengthening, and policy design services. Carrillo routinely procures expert consultants, data-driven diagnostics, and capacity-building interventions tailored to public sector reform in complex international environments, demonstrating deep domain expertise in development governance and technical assistance contracting.
