A. Lormand

A. Lormand serves as a Government Official with the Pointe Coupee Parish Government, overseeing procurement activities aligned with the agency’s mission to safeguard public infrastructure and enhance community resilience. In this capacity, Lormand manages the acquisition of critical remediation and environmental services, ensuring compliance with state and federal regulatory standards. Their procurement focus centers on capital improvements related to contaminated site remediation, drainage system rehabilitation, and condemned property abatement—key priorities for maintaining public safety and environmental health across the parish. Lormand plays a central role in executing contract solicitations, evaluating vendor capabilities, and ensuring timely delivery of services that support long-term municipal sustainability goals. Lormand’s contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and regulatory compliance over vendor size or status. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identified in the procurement record, the agency routinely engages qualified environmental remediation firms with expertise in soil and groundwater remediation, hazardous material removal, and brownfield redevelopment. Vendor partnerships are typically established through competitive sealed bidding and performance-based contract structures, with a strong emphasis on technical competency, safety protocols, and adherence to EPA and Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality guidelines. Lormand’s procurement portfolio reflects a clear preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” There is no current pattern of targeted socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB designations. This reflects a strategic emphasis on selecting the most technically capable providers regardless of business size or certification status, prioritizing mission-critical outcomes over socioeconomic preferences. The agency’s procurement activity is entirely concentrated under NAICS 562910 (Remediation Services), indicating deep specialization in environmental cleanup and land restoration. Lormand’s expertise lies in procuring services including asbestos abatement, PCB remediation, landfill capping, and stormwater infrastructure upgrades—all essential to maintaining public health and environmental compliance in a region vulnerable to flooding and industrial legacy contamination.
