Amanda M. Girth studies how governments manage relationships with outside contractors and partners, including how contracts are designed, how performance is monitored, and how accountability is maintained when public services are outsourced. Her work draws on public administration and supply chain management to examine issues like federal procurement, contract complexity, and partnerships between health and social service systems. This research is relevant to students interested in government contracting, public-private partnerships, and how public agencies oversee private and nonprofit service providers.
Publication output has been uneven over the last decade, with active years (e.g., 2018, 2020, 2022, 2024) interspersed with years of no recorded output, and averages about 1.6 publications per year over the last five years.
