Sanjiv Chokshi

Sanjiv Chokshi serves as a Senior Engineer within Orange County’s Public Works, Engineering department, where he plays a pivotal role in the technical evaluation and procurement of heavy civil infrastructure projects. Responsible for ensuring engineering compliance and performance standards, he leads the technical due diligence for acquisitions related to stormwater management, drainage systems, and public works facilities. His position bridges engineering expertise with procurement strategy, ensuring that contract requirements align with long-term infrastructure resilience goals and federal/state engineering codes. He typically oversees complex construction and rehabilitation procurements under the Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction NAICS category, managing design-build, construction-manager-at-risk, and traditional bid-build delivery methods. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the procurement record, Chokshi consistently engages with qualified civil engineering firms, heavy construction contractors, and specialized drainage system vendors with proven experience in large-scale public works projects. His working relationships emphasize technical competency, past performance on similar infrastructure, and adherence to Florida Department of Environmental Protection standards. He prioritizes contractors with demonstrated capacity in hydraulic modeling, erosion control, and sustainable infrastructure design. Chokshi’s procurement activity reflects a strict preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a focus on technical merit and capacity over socioeconomic categorization, though small businesses are not excluded—they compete on equal footing based on qualifications and performance history. His approach supports a level playing field while maintaining rigorous engineering oversight. His primary industry focus is NAICS 237990, encompassing heavy civil engineering construction for public infrastructure. He specializes in procuring services related to stormwater detention basins, culvert replacements, channel stabilization, pump station upgrades, and erosion control systems. His technical domain expertise lies in hydrologic and hydraulic analysis, civil site design, and long-term asset maintenance planning, ensuring that all procurements deliver durable, environmentally compliant infrastructure for Orange County’s growing communities.
