Jennifer Davis

Jennifer Davis serves as Director of the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) for the City of Port St. Lucie, where she oversees the strategic procurement of public infrastructure and land use transformation projects aligned with the city’s long-term economic development goals. In this primary contracting role, she leads the acquisition of commercial and institutional construction services to revitalize underutilized urban corridors, ensuring alignment with municipal planning objectives and public-private partnership frameworks. Her portfolio centers on large-scale, high-impact civil construction initiatives that enhance community livability, including mixed-use developments, public amenities, and supporting infrastructure upgrades. While no specific contractor relationships are currently documented in the procurement records, Davis routinely engages with qualified general contractors, design-build firms, and construction managers with demonstrated expertise in commercial and institutional building projects. Her procurement process emphasizes competitive sealed bidding and performance-based contracting, fostering transparent, results-driven vendor partnerships grounded in compliance with Florida state procurement codes and federal construction standards. Davis maintains a strict preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions issued without set-asides, reflecting a focus on technical capability and value delivery over socioeconomic classifications. Though small business participation is not formally incentivized through 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her office encourages broad vendor participation through accessible solicitation practices and clear evaluation criteria. Her procurement activity is exclusively concentrated in NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—demonstrating deep specialization in the planning, design, and execution of multi-tenant retail, civic, educational, and mixed-use facilities. She oversees the acquisition of turnkey construction services, including site preparation, structural systems, MEP integration, and sustainable building practices, requiring contractors with proven experience in complex urban redevelopment environments.
