Sherry S. Solodkova

Sherry S. Solodkova serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where she manages technical assistance and institutional capacity-building contracts aligned with the agency’s global development mission. She specializes in acquiring professional, scientific, and technical services that support governance reform, democratic engagement, and public sector strengthening in partner nations. Her portfolio centers on performance-based acquisitions designed to enhance institutional resilience, policy advisory capacity, and emergency response coordination, often requiring complex, long-term contract structures such as Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) and Task Order mechanisms. Solodkova maintains a primary working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a trusted contractor delivering high-level technical expertise in governance, institutional development, and policy analysis. Her procurement pattern reflects a preference for established, mission-aligned firms with demonstrated experience in international development contexts, emphasizing performance outcomes, technical rigor, and adaptive management approaches. She engages contractors through competitive solicitation processes that prioritize subject matter expertise and field implementation capacity over cost alone. Her contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on securing the highest-quality technical services available globally, prioritizing capability and track record over socioeconomic classifications. While small business participation is not formally targeted, her acquisitions remain compliant with all federal procurement regulations. Solodkova’s primary procurement focus is under NAICS 541990—All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services—encompassing advisory services, institutional assessments, training design, monitoring and evaluation frameworks, and technical capacity-building programs. She consistently procures specialized services in democratic governance, public financial management, and civil society engagement, demonstrating deep expertise in the technical domains critical to USAID’s international development objectives.
