Alicia Platt

Alicia Platt serves as a key procurement lead within the City of San Pablo’s Public Works / Engineering Department, overseeing acquisitions that advance municipal infrastructure resilience and public safety initiatives. Her role centers on managing capital improvement contracts aligned with urban planning, community development, and environmental compliance objectives. She is responsible for soliciting, evaluating, and awarding services related to roadway maintenance, stormwater management, ADA transition planning, and public facility upgrades, ensuring all procurements adhere to state and federal regulatory frameworks. Platt’s work directly supports the agency’s mission to modernize aging infrastructure while promoting equitable access and sustainable design. While specific contractor relationships are not currently documented in procurement records, Platt engages with a broad spectrum of professional service providers, including civil engineering firms, environmental consultants, and public works contractors specializing in municipal infrastructure. Her contracting patterns suggest collaboration with vendors possessing expertise in geotechnical analysis, drainage system design, and accessibility compliance, with an emphasis on technical proficiency and regulatory alignment rather than vendor size or ownership status. Platt’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on merit-based selection criteria, prioritizing technical capability, past performance, and compliance over socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, vendors of all sizes are evaluated on technical merit and capacity to deliver complex public works solutions. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 925120—Administration of Urban Planning and Community and Rural Development—reflecting deep expertise in municipal infrastructure planning, capital project management, and regulatory compliance. She routinely procures services related to stormwater permitting, ADA transition plans, public facility upgrades, and urban design studies, demonstrating specialized knowledge in public sector planning and engineering procurement.
