US Mission in Vietnam

US Agency for International Development Vietnam (USAID Vietnam), a civilian sub-agency within the broader US Agency for International Development, administers contracts and grants supporting development assistance programs, humanitarian initiatives, and institutional-strengthening activities across Vietnam.

USAID Vietnam has awarded 154 federal contracts totaling $683.8 million in combined potential value since 2008, with $585 million obligated to date. Recent contract activity has declined: the office closed 10 awards in 2020, 15 in 2021, 14 in 2022, 9 in 2023, and 5 in 2024, with the most recent award dated September 2024. The contractor base is fragmented, with the top five primes by award count accounting for 59 percent of recent awards but holding only $3.7 million to $131 thousand in individual combined potential value; these awards cluster among domestic awardees and smaller Vietnamese vendors. By potential value over the last five years, concentration is highly fragmented at 18 percent of combined potential value, led by Tetra Tech, Inc. ($32.2 million), Vina E&C Investment And Construction JSC ($29 million), Banyan Global Inc. ($23.9 million), Chemonics International, Inc. ($21.1 million), and Creative Associates International, Inc. ($19 million) — each holding a single award. Across the 154-award lifetime portfolio, 50 distinct prime contractors have received awards. Contract set-asides are minimal: 99 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation, and only 2 awards (1 percent) are small-business set-asides.

USAID Vietnam has awarded 57 federal grants totaling $533 million in combined federal dollars obligated since 2012, with total obligated funds (federal plus non-federal match) of $538.7 million. Grant activity shows volatility: 11 awards in 2020, 9 in 2021, 3 in 2022, 10 in 2023, and 3 in 2024, with the most recent grant award dated September 2024. The recipient base is fragmented, with the top five recipients by award count accounting for 39 percent of recent awards. Path leads by federal dollars with $31.6 million across 2 awards; Chemonics International, Inc., Education Development Center, Inc., Centre For Promotion Of Quality Of Life, and Winrock International Institute For Agricultural Development round out the top five by federal dollars, which together hold 13 percent of recent obligated federal funds. Across the 57-award lifetime portfolio, 39 distinct recipients have received grants. Cooperative Agreements dominate the assistance-type mix at 70 percent of awards, with Project Grants comprising 30 percent.
