NIGP-CPP Fabio Henao

NIGP-CPP Fabio Henao serves as a key procurement professional within the Community Redevelopment Agency of the Town of Davie, overseeing acquisitions that advance the agency’s mission of urban revitalization through strategic infrastructure and placemaking initiatives. He manages the full lifecycle of contracts for professional services and construction projects, with a focus on engineering, architectural, and landscape design solutions that transform blighted properties into community assets. His role ensures alignment between procurement practices and the agency’s goals of economic growth, pedestrian safety, and cultural enrichment, prioritizing compliance, transparency, and value-driven outcomes in all acquisition activities. Henao’s contractor relationships are primarily centered on professional service firms delivering engineering, architectural, and landscape architectural services, often engaging with mid-sized and specialized local consultants with deep regional expertise. While no single vendor dominates his portfolio, he consistently partners with firms possessing demonstrated experience in municipal redevelopment, historic preservation, and public space design. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for performance-based requirements and qualifications-based selection, fostering collaborative, long-term vendor relationships grounded in technical competence and community-oriented outcomes. Henao’s procurement approach reflects a strong commitment to open competition, with 100% of acquisitions conducted without set-asides, indicating a focus on technical merit and market readiness over socioeconomic classifications. While he does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, his processes remain fully compliant with federal and state small business participation requirements, ensuring equitable access for all qualified vendors regardless of certification status. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services) and 541310 (Architectural Services), each accounting for over a quarter of his portfolio, followed by 541320 (Landscape Architectural Services) and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction). He routinely procures design-build services, site planning, structural analysis, and public amenity development, demonstrating deep expertise in the technical and regulatory frameworks governing urban redevelopment projects.
