Matthew Gill

Matthew Gill serves as the Deputy Purchasing Agent, where he is responsible for overseeing procurement activities and supporting the agency's acquisition mission. In this role, he manages the solicitation and awarding of contracts to ensure the efficient procurement of goods and services necessary for agency operations. The agency demonstrates a strong preference for open competition, with the vast majority of awards going to non-set-aside contracts. However, there is a specific commitment to supporting local economic growth through a price preference for Orange County Local Small Business (OCLSB) bidders, with additional preferences extended to dual OCLSB and DVBE certified businesses. The agency's procurement focus is heavily weighted toward infrastructure and technical services. The primary area of activity is in highway, street, and bridge construction, complemented by a significant volume of engineering services. Additionally, the office procures industrial truck, tractor, and trailer machinery, as well as office machinery and equipment rental and leasing services and hazardous waste collection.
