Yousri S. Fawzi serves as a Senior Acquisition Specialist at USAID/Egypt, where he plays a pivotal role in executing the agency’s mission of advancing sustainable development through strategic procurement. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of complex development contracts, he specializes in technical assistance, institutional capacity building, and program support services aligned with USAID’s priorities in governance, economic resilience, education, and public health. His acquisitions typically involve long-term, performance-based contracts with international and local implementing partners, ensuring alignment with U.S. foreign assistance objectives and compliance with FAR and AIDAR regulations. While no specific contractor relationships are identified in current records, Mr. Fawzi consistently engages a diverse pool of qualified vendors, including international consulting firms, Egyptian civil society organizations, and technical service providers with demonstrated expertise in development programming. His procurement approach emphasizes competitive bidding, transparent evaluation criteria, and value-based selection to ensure high-impact outcomes and accountability in program delivery. Mr. Fawzi’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open, unrestricted competition, with 100% of his acquisitions conducted under non-set-aside authorities. This approach underscores a strategic focus on maximizing technical capability and global expertise rather than socioeconomic set-asides, though he remains compliant with all applicable small business participation requirements. His procurement philosophy prioritizes performance, innovation, and local partner integration over socioeconomic categorization. His primary procurement focus lies in professional services related to technical assistance, institutional strengthening, workforce development, and private sector engagement. He frequently procures services under NAICS categories associated with management consulting, training and education support, and public administration consulting, reflecting deep expertise in designing and managing development programs that require adaptive implementation, monitoring and evaluation, and stakeholder coordination across Egypt’s public and private sectors.
