Adam Teunissen

Adam Teunissen serves as a key procurement professional within the City of Woodland Park, overseeing the acquisition of critical public infrastructure services aligned with the agency’s mission of sustainable community development. His role centers on managing contracts for water and sewer system modernization, pavement reconstruction, and stormwater management projects, ensuring compliance with municipal standards and long-term asset lifecycle planning. As the primary point of contact for civil construction procurements, he directs the solicitation, evaluation, and award processes for capital improvement initiatives, prioritizing resilience, regulatory adherence, and public safety in all contracting decisions. Teunissen collaborates with a network of qualified civil construction contractors specializing in underground utility installation, pipeline rehabilitation, and roadway infrastructure upgrades. While no single vendor dominates his procurement portfolio, he consistently engages firms with demonstrated expertise in trenchless technology, HDPE pipe installation, and stormwater detention system design. His working relationships emphasize technical competency, past performance, and local capacity, fostering partnerships with regional contractors who understand the unique topographic and environmental challenges of the Colorado mountain foothills. Teunissen’s contracting approach reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of procurements designated as “No Set-Aside.” While he does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, he actively encourages participation from small and medium-sized enterprises through transparent solicitation practices and clear evaluation criteria focused on technical merit and operational readiness. His procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 237110—Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction—encompassing the design-build and construction management delivery methods for potable water mains, sanitary sewers, storm drains, and associated appurtenances. He possesses deep technical expertise in ANSI/AWWA standards, EPA stormwater regulations, and Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment guidelines, ensuring all contracted work meets stringent environmental and public health benchmarks.
