Dee Ann Sadayasu

Dee Ann Sadayasu serves as an Administrative Services Officer II within the Hawaii County Department of Human Resources, where she plays a pivotal role in advancing workforce well-being through strategic procurement of human capital services. Responsible for managing the acquisition of consulting solutions that enhance employee engagement and workplace safety, she leads the procurement lifecycle for contracts aligned with the agency’s mission to implement flexible benefits programs, including cafeteria plans, and ensure compliance with occupational health standards. Her acquisitions primarily focus on expert-led human resources consulting, designed to modernize compensation structures and improve organizational resilience through evidence-based workforce strategies. Dee Ann collaborates with a network of specialized human resources consulting firms that provide tailored solutions in benefits design, compliance advisory, and employee engagement strategy development. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages vendors with demonstrated expertise in public-sector HR transformation, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in technical proficiency and regulatory alignment. Her working relationships emphasize performance-based deliverables, clear scope definition, and outcomes-oriented contract management to ensure alignment with county-wide human capital goals. Dee Ann’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted under non-set-aside authorities. She does not currently prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, instead focusing on technical capability and domain expertise as the primary selection criteria. This approach ensures the agency secures the highest quality consulting services to meet its complex human resources needs without compromising on compliance or implementation efficacy. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 541612 — Human Resources Consulting Services — encompassing strategic planning, benefits administration design, labor law compliance, and employee wellness program development. She specializes in procuring services that enable the agency to deliver customizable, legally compliant compensation frameworks and safety-compliant workplace initiatives, demonstrating deep technical expertise in public-sector HR systems and federal-state regulatory alignment.
