Waymon A Carroll

Waymon A. Carroll serves as a Contracting Officer for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operating under agency code 7200AA, where he plays a pivotal role in executing strategic procurements that advance international development objectives. He manages the acquisition lifecycle for technical assistance, institutional capacity building, and governance support services, ensuring alignment with USAID’s mission to strengthen public sector institutions in partner nations. His portfolio includes complex, performance-based contracts requiring deep subject-matter expertise in governance reform, democratic engagement, and emergency response coordination. Carroll’s acquisitions are designed to foster sustainable outcomes through rigorous compliance with federal procurement regulations and international development standards. Carroll maintains a consistent working relationship with AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a key contractor providing specialized technical and operational support for USAID’s global programs. His contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance accountability and adaptive management. He frequently engages firms capable of delivering integrated solutions across multiple geographies, prioritizing contractors with proven experience in institutional strengthening and cross-cultural program implementation. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for collaborative, outcomes-driven vendor relationships rather than transactional engagements. Carroll demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic inclusion, with approximately half of his awards structured as 8(a) competed set-asides, reflecting a deliberate focus on empowering small disadvantaged businesses. The remaining half are awarded without set-aside, enabling broad competition while maintaining flexibility for mission-critical needs. This balanced approach supports USAID’s mandate to promote equitable economic opportunity while ensuring program effectiveness. His contracting patterns consistently align with federal small business participation goals and demonstrate a strategic use of 8(a) authority to build capacity among underrepresented firms in international development services. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), encompassing governance advisory, policy analysis, and training services, and NAICS 493110 (General Warehousing and Storage), supporting logistical infrastructure for emergency response and supply chain resilience. He specializes in acquiring high-integrity, mission-critical services that require nuanced understanding of local contexts and robust monitoring frameworks.
