SPIROS A. LAZARIS, PE
GLOBAL INFRASTRUCTURE
CONSULTANT
I am an accomplished professional with over 25 years of diverse experience in the areas of Civil Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Program Management, and Project Management for Public Works Infrastructure Projects and Land Development. I have provided leadership and direction to senior-level engineers, consultants, and contractors. I have planned, analyzed, developed and directed all aspects of large and complex public works projects by reviewing, scheduling, and directing the scope of work; and developing design and construction documents, resource management and cost control on capital improvement projects for large municipalities. I established the goals and criteria by which public works projects are planned and designed. As Program/Project Manager, I managed all phases of highly complex projects such as the design-build Water Treatment facility, Charnock Well Field Restoration Project. I designed and conducted construction management for all geotechnical work on 24 public branch libraries and four of the largest police stations for the City of Los Angeles.
I am the founder and principal of Spiros Lazaris Engineered Solutions L.L.C. where I provide specialized consulting services for public infrastructure used for the conveyance of people, vehicles, basic energy and commerce in areas of the sub-Saharan African region. Additionally, I provide mentorship to engineering students and professionals globally.
