US Mission in Guinea-Sierra Leone

The US Agency for International Development Guinea Sierra Leone, a sub-agency of USAID, administers foreign development assistance programs and funds related contracts and grants in Guinea and Sierra Leone. The agency operates as a regional field mission delivering USAID's humanitarian, health, governance, and economic-development mandate across West Africa.

The agency closed 114 total contract awards since 2009, with $17 million in combined potential value and $14.7 million obligated (87% of potential). Recent contract activity has declined sharply — 10 awards in 2021, 11 in 2022, 13 in 2023, dropping to 6 in 2024 and 1 year-to-date in 2025. Among recent awardees, Intellectechs Inc. leads by count with 8 awards over the last five years ($320 thousand combined value), followed by undisclosed foreign and domestic awardees grouping 12 awards collectively ($4 million combined value). Concentration by award count is moderately concentrated at the top five, while by-value concentration is highly fragmented — undisclosed domestic and foreign awardees combined hold $4 million (28% of recent potential value), with the next-largest named vendor below $400 thousand. Nearly all 114 awards carry no set-aside designation (97% open competition). A small number of recent awards (9% over the last five years) lack reported potential value, typical of Schedule task orders, BPA calls, or modifications. The competitive base spans 20 distinct prime contractors across the portfolio history.

The agency obligated $247.2 million in federal grant dollars across 28 total grant awards since 2011, with steady recent activity of 1 to 3 awards annually — 1 in 2020, 2 in 2021, 3 in 2022, 3 in 2023, and 3 in 2024. The most recent recorded grant award closed on 2024-07-15. Recipient concentration is fragmented: the top five recipients by award count cover 50% of recent awards, with Research Triangle Institute and Consortium For Elections & Political Process Strengthening leading by federal dollars obligated ($69.4 million and $31.9 million respectively). By-value concentration is also fragmented at 47% coverage. Grants are structured predominantly as Cooperative Agreements (75% of awards) with the remainder as Project Grants (25%). The agency has funded 20 distinct grant recipients cumulatively.

No recent federal contract opportunities or grant opportunities are recorded against the agency in the source data.
