In this role, she ensures compliance with state and federal procurement regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to enhance operational efficiency, data integrity, and cybersecurity across benefit delivery platforms.

Lund works closely with internal stakeholders to align procurement strategy with long-term technology modernization goals and regulatory requirements. While no specific contractor relationships are currently documented in the procurement record, Lund’s portfolio consistently engages firms with expertise in architectural planning and environmental design services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven experience in public-sector facility projects, particularly those capable of delivering integrated design-build solutions that meet stringent state compliance standards.

Lund’s procurement activity shows a 100% preference for non-set-aside contracts, indicating a focus on full and open competition without socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB designations. This approach prioritizes technical merit and cost-effectiveness over socioeconomic criteria, aligning with the agency’s emphasis on mission-critical performance over targeted contracting preferences. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541310 (Architectural Services) and 561730 (Landscaping Services), reflecting a dual emphasis on facility design and grounds maintenance for state-owned infrastructure. She procures services including building planning, site development, environmental compliance, and sustainable landscape management, demonstrating expertise in technical domains that support secure, resilient, and compliant operational environments for insurance and pension systems.
