Adrian Hinojos

Adrian Hinojos serves as a key procurement professional within the Washington Department of Enterprise Services (DES), supporting the agency’s mission to deliver efficient, safe, and sustainable public infrastructure through strategic acquisition of construction and facility services. In this role, Hinojos manages the planning, solicitation, and award of contracts for critical state facilities projects, with a focus on plumbing, heating, air-conditioning, commercial building construction, and finish carpentry services. Their work ensures that state-owned buildings and utilities meet modern operational, safety, and sustainability standards, aligning procurement outcomes with Washington’s long-term infrastructure goals. Hinojos collaborates with a diverse range of contractors specializing in skilled trades and building systems integration, fostering partnerships with firms capable of delivering complex, code-compliant installations across public facilities. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identified in the dataset, their contracting patterns reflect a preference for qualified, licensed trade contractors with proven experience in state-funded projects. Engagement is typically performance-based, emphasizing compliance with state building codes, project timelines, and quality assurance protocols. Hinojos consistently prioritizes open competition, with 100% of their procurements classified as “No Set-Aside,” indicating a focus on merit-based selection rather than socioeconomic set-asides. This approach reflects a strategic emphasis on broad market access and competitive pricing, ensuring the state receives high-quality services from the most capable vendors regardless of business size or certification status. The primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), and 238350 (Finish Carpentry Contractors), underscoring deep expertise in building systems and interior finish work. Hinojos specializes in procuring turnkey construction services for state facilities, including HVAC retrofits, structural upgrades, and interior renovations, demonstrating technical fluency in building science and facility lifecycle management.
