Alejandro Nunez

Alejandro Nunez serves as a key procurement professional within Los Angeles County Public Works, supporting the agency’s mission to deliver resilient infrastructure and operational services across the county’s built environment. He manages the acquisition of commercial and institutional building construction services, overseeing the full lifecycle of contracts from solicitation to award and performance monitoring. His work directly enables the construction, renovation, and modernization of public facilities, transportation-related structures, and utility systems critical to public safety and community resilience. Nunez ensures compliance with state and federal procurement regulations while aligning acquisitions with the agency’s strategic priorities in civil engineering and workforce development. Nunez collaborates with a broad spectrum of general contractors and specialty construction firms, primarily those with proven experience in large-scale public works projects. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established firms with demonstrated capacity in complex, multi-phase construction delivery, including design-build and construction management-at-risk approaches. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages vendors with strong safety records, local presence, and experience in California’s stringent environmental and labor compliance frameworks. Nunez’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of acquisitions open to full and open competition. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize contractor participation and competition within the commercial construction market, prioritizing technical capability and value over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, he encourages it through transparent solicitation practices and clear evaluation criteria that reward proven performance and local economic impact. His primary focus is on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—encompassing the procurement of new construction, renovations, and infrastructure upgrades for public buildings, courthouses, administrative facilities, and community centers. He specializes in contracts requiring coordination with structural, mechanical, and electrical systems, and possesses deep expertise in managing projects subject to Caltrans, ADA, and Title 24 compliance standards.
