Alicia Carmona

Alicia Carmona serves as Assistant City Engineer for the City of Conroe’s Engineering Department, where she plays a pivotal role in overseeing the procurement and management of public infrastructure projects critical to the city’s long-term resilience. Her responsibilities include evaluating, soliciting, and awarding contracts for water and sewer system construction, roadway rehabilitation, and stormwater management infrastructure. As a primary procurement contact, she ensures compliance with municipal engineering standards and state regulatory frameworks while aligning acquisitions with the department’s strategic asset management goals. She typically handles design-build, construction-manager-at-risk, and lump-sum bid contracts for civil works projects requiring technical expertise in hydraulic systems, utility alignment, and erosion control. While specific contractor relationships are not currently documented in the procurement database, Carmona routinely engages with qualified civil construction firms possessing demonstrated experience in water and sewer line installation, trenchless technologies, and stormwater detention infrastructure. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for vendors with proven track records in municipal infrastructure delivery, including firms experienced in working with Texas Department of Transportation standards and EPA stormwater compliance protocols. Carmona’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of procurements open to all eligible bidders without socioeconomic preferences for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This reflects a departmental strategy prioritizing technical capability and competitive pricing over socioeconomic targeting, though small businesses are not excluded and may compete on equal footing under full and open competition. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 237110—Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction—indicating deep specialization in underground utility networks, pipeline rehabilitation, pump station upgrades, and related civil works. She possesses technical expertise in interpreting engineering specifications for HDPE and PVC piping, concrete manholes, gravity and pressure sewer systems, and storm drainage infrastructure, ensuring all procurements meet functional, safety, and longevity requirements for public use.
