Boriana Pollard

Boriana Pollard serves as City Auditor for the City of Florida, overseeing financial accountability, internal controls, and compliance with municipal procurement regulations. In this primary role, she ensures that all city expenditures align with statutory requirements and public fiduciary standards, acting as a critical gatekeeper in the acquisition lifecycle. While not a contracting officer per se, her office conducts independent audits of procurement activities, reviews bid processes for procedural integrity, and evaluates vendor performance to mitigate risk and promote transparency. Her oversight extends to contract execution, change order approvals, and post-award compliance, making her a pivotal figure in upholding ethical and efficient public spending practices. Though no specific contractor relationships are currently documented in the system, Pollard’s audit function inherently engages with all vendors that contract with the city, including those providing financial services, IT infrastructure, facility maintenance, and professional consulting. Her office collaborates with procurement departments to validate vendor eligibility, confirm certifications, and ensure adherence to competitive bidding protocols. She works closely with contracting teams to resolve discrepancies and strengthen vendor accountability, fostering a culture of due diligence across the supply chain. Pollard demonstrates a strong institutional commitment to equitable contracting practices, routinely reviewing procurement records for compliance with state-mandated small business participation goals. While specific set-aside preferences are not quantified in available data, her audit protocols systematically verify adherence to 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB certifications, ensuring that socioeconomic programs are properly implemented and that disadvantaged businesses receive fair access to municipal opportunities. Her industry focus centers on financial oversight and administrative services, with frequent audits of contracts under NAICS codes related to accounting (541211), management consulting (541611), and public administration support (921190). She possesses deep expertise in evaluating procurement controls, internal audit frameworks, and compliance with GASB and federal grant requirements, ensuring that city acquisitions reflect both fiscal responsibility and regulatory rigor.
