Shelise Lamb

Shelise Lamb serves as Project Coordinator for the Environmental Management Solid Waste Division of the County of Hawaii, where she plays a pivotal role in managing the procurement lifecycle for critical infrastructure projects related to landfill operations and solid waste management systems. Responsible for coordinating contract development, solicitation preparation, and vendor engagement, Lamb ensures alignment with state and federal environmental regulations and operational resilience goals. Her acquisitions primarily support civil construction and site modernization efforts, with a focus on engineering-driven projects that enhance landfill integrity, leachate control, and environmental compliance. Lamb collaborates closely with civil engineering contractors, heavy construction firms, and specialized environmental remediation vendors to deliver high-priority infrastructure upgrades. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identified in the procurement record, her role necessitates consistent engagement with qualified firms capable of executing complex earthwork, geosynthetic liner installation, and landfill cap construction. Her procurement approach emphasizes technical competency, regulatory adherence, and project timeline discipline, fostering long-term vendor partnerships built on performance reliability and safety compliance. Lamb’s contracting activity reflects a clear preference for open competition, with 100% of procurements classified as “No Set-Aside,” indicating a focus on technical capability over socioeconomic classifications. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in current patterns, her process remains transparent and accessible to all qualified bidders, adhering strictly to competitive bidding standards under Hawaii’s public procurement code. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 237310—Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction—reflecting her specialization in large-scale earthmoving, grading, compaction, and civil infrastructure projects essential to landfill expansion and environmental containment. She procures services related to landfill cell construction, stormwater management systems, and geotechnical stabilization, demonstrating deep expertise in the technical demands of hazardous waste infrastructure and sustainable landfill engineering.
