Her portfolio centers on integrated project delivery models and performance-based contracting strategies tailored to mission-critical federal facilities. She maintains a primary working relationship with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a trusted contractor with deep expertise in commercial and institutional construction. Natividad’s procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, consistent performance evaluation, and early contractor engagement to mitigate risk and enhance project outcomes. Her partnerships reflect a preference for contractors with proven track records in federal construction environments and a commitment to quality, safety, and schedule adherence.

This deliberate focus aligns with federal mandates and reinforces the agency’s dedication to empowering veteran-owned enterprises in the federal construction marketplace. Her contracting patterns reflect a strategic alignment with the government’s goal of increasing equitable access to public works opportunities. Her technical expertise is concentrated in NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—where she procures turnkey design-build services, structural renovations, and facility modernization projects. She specializes in complex, multi-phase construction contracts requiring coordination among architects, engineers, and specialized trades to meet stringent federal security and sustainability standards. Her domain knowledge encompasses building code compliance, energy efficiency initiatives, and adaptive reuse of federal infrastructure.
