Martinez maintains a consistent working relationship with THE FERNANDO GROUP LLC, a primary contractor for construction and renovation services across federal properties in the region. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in reliability, compliance, and performance-driven outcomes. He engages with contractors who demonstrate proven expertise in federal construction standards, including adherence to GSA specifications, sustainability benchmarks, and federal facility codes.
