U. S. Personal Service Contractor Country Advisor for Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), Office of South American Affairs

This solicitation seeks offers for a U.S. Personal Services Contractor position as a Country Advisor to provide program support services for the Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean at the U.S. Agency for International Development. Offerors must have a minimum of nine years of relevant experience including two years of overseas experience and two years of supervision. The contractor will be based in Bogota, Colombia and provide support such as conceptualizing strategies, managing partner relationships, monitoring political and security issues, and representing USAID in an assigned South American country. The selection criteria include the offeror's education, work experience, skills, and interview performance. Offers must be submitted by January 19, 2023.

The one-year base period of performance will begin on April 10, 2023 with four optional one-year extensions. There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. Eligible offerors may be naturalized U.S. citizens born in Venezuela. The position is for a USPSC rather than a FSL due to it being field-based and potentially in a non-presence country. While the objective is to have an advisor focused primarily on USAID activities in Venezuela, the solicitation refers broadly to supporting development projects in South America.
