Alexis Haines

Alexis Haines serves as a Procurement Analyst for the St. Mary’s County Government Procurement Office, where she plays a central role in executing strategic acquisitions that support critical public infrastructure and essential community services. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of procurement activities for concrete pipe manufacturing and related civil infrastructure projects, ensuring compliance with state and federal procurement regulations. She works closely with engineering and public works teams to translate technical specifications into solicitation documents, evaluates vendor proposals for technical and cost competitiveness, and facilitates contract award and administration. Her work directly advances the agency’s mission to maintain resilient stormwater, sewer, and transportation systems through reliable, high-quality materials and services. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identified in the procurement database, Haines engages with a broad spectrum of manufacturers and suppliers specializing in precast and reinforced concrete pipe systems. She maintains a vendor-neutral procurement process, prioritizing technical compliance, delivery timelines, and material durability over vendor history, fostering a competitive and transparent marketplace for infrastructure-grade products. Haines’s procurement portfolio reflects a clear preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions designated as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on technical merit and performance capability rather than socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with the agency’s need for standardized, high-volume infrastructure components where broad market participation ensures supply chain reliability. Her primary technical focus is on NAICS 327332, Concrete Pipe Manufacturing, where she specializes in procuring large-diameter reinforced concrete pipe, manholes, catch basins, and associated hydraulic infrastructure components. She possesses deep familiarity with ASTM and AASHTO material standards, ensuring all acquisitions meet engineering specifications for durability, load-bearing capacity, and long-term performance in Maryland’s coastal and storm-prone environments.
