Alexandria De Lashmutt

Alexandria De Lashmutt serves as a procurement specialist within the Transportation Planning division of the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority, supporting the agency’s mission to advance sustainable and data-driven public transit systems. In this role, she manages the acquisition of technical services and infrastructure-related goods critical to modernizing transit scheduling, simulation tools, and operational planning capabilities. Her responsibilities include issuing solicitations, evaluating proposals, and ensuring compliance with state and federal procurement regulations, with a focus on delivering high-impact, community-centered mobility solutions through strategic contracting. While no specific contractor relationships are currently documented, De Lashmutt engages with a diverse range of vendors across multiple sectors to fulfill the agency’s technical and logistical needs. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for open competition, with no set-asides currently applied to her acquisitions, indicating a focus on broad market engagement rather than socioeconomic preference programs. She works closely with firms offering specialized planning software, engineering services, and equipment leasing to support transit system optimization. Her contracting activity is concentrated in five NAICS categories, each representing 14.3% of her portfolio: truck and RV leasing, hardware wholesaling, footwear manufacturing, apparel contracting, and legal services. This unusual distribution suggests she may be managing a mix of operational support contracts—such as fleet maintenance, protective gear procurement, and legal counsel for transit-related compliance—alongside ancillary services that enable day-to-day agency operations rather than core transit technology. De Lashmutt’s expertise lies in navigating complex, cross-sector procurement environments to secure essential goods and services that underpin transit planning initiatives. Her approach emphasizes regulatory compliance, market transparency, and the alignment of vendor capabilities with the agency’s long-term mobility objectives.
