Bonnie Reyes Lopez

Bonnie Reyes serves as Project Manager for Administrative Services, Capital Projects within Orange County, Florida, where she leads the end-to-end procurement and delivery of critical public infrastructure projects. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of capital construction acquisitions, she ensures compliance with state and federal procurement regulations while aligning project outcomes with the agency’s mission to deliver safe, resilient, and high-performance facilities. Her portfolio primarily encompasses water and sewer infrastructure and transportation construction, requiring deep coordination with engineers, designers, and construction contractors to meet stringent public safety and environmental standards. Bonnie works closely with a diverse range of general contractors and specialty subcontractors experienced in civil works, utility installation, and heavy highway construction. While no single contractor dominates her award portfolio, she consistently engages firms with proven expertise in large-scale public works, emphasizing performance history, safety records, and technical capability over price alone. Her contracting approach prioritizes reliability, schedule adherence, and quality control, fostering long-term partnerships with contractors who demonstrate operational excellence and regulatory compliance. Bonnie’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides. This reflects Orange County’s strategic focus on maximizing value and efficiency through broad market participation rather than socioeconomic targeting. While small business participation is not mandated, she remains open to qualified small and mid-sized firms that meet technical and performance benchmarks, ensuring fair access without artificial constraints. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237110 (Water and Sewer Line Construction) and 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), reflecting her deep expertise in civil infrastructure. She routinely manages complex bids for stormwater systems, wastewater pipelines, roadways, and bridge rehabilitation, requiring specialized knowledge in geotechnical engineering, drainage design, and DOT compliance standards. Her technical acumen ensures that all procurements align with Florida’s infrastructure resilience goals and long-term maintenance requirements.
