Dan Striegel

Dan Striegel serves as a procurement professional within the City of Iowa City, supporting the agency’s mission to maintain and modernize critical public infrastructure and municipal services. In his role, he manages the acquisition of civil works, transportation, and vehicle-related assets essential to urban operations, ensuring compliance with municipal procurement policies and state regulatory frameworks. He typically handles competitive solicitations for highway construction, water and wastewater systems, and municipal vehicle fleets, aligning acquisitions with long-term infrastructure resilience goals. His work directly supports the city’s strategic priorities in sustainable transportation and utility modernization. Striegel engages with a broad spectrum of contractors, primarily in the civil construction and automotive manufacturing sectors. While no single vendor dominates his portfolio, he consistently works with firms qualified in highway, street, and bridge construction, as well as those certified to supply and maintain light-duty municipal vehicles. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for open competition and performance-based specifications, fostering transparent, merit-based vendor relationships grounded in technical capability and past performance. Striegel’s procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a deliberate agency strategy to prioritize technical merit and cost-effectiveness over socioeconomic preferences, though small businesses are not excluded—they compete on equal footing under standard federal and municipal procurement rules. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) and NAICS 336110 (Automobile and Light Duty Motor Vehicle Manufacturing), with a significant portion also tied to 441110 (New Car Dealers) for fleet procurement. He specializes in acquiring durable, low-maintenance municipal vehicles and infrastructure construction services, demonstrating deep expertise in public works contracting, vehicle lifecycle management, and civil engineering procurement standards.
