HOW TO OFFER
The Automated Advanced Acquisition Program (AAAP), located at https://leasing.gsa.gov/, will enable
interested parties to offer space for lease to the Federal Government in response to the FY25 AAAP RLP.
In addition, the Government will use its AAAP to satisfy the above space requirement.
Offerors must go to the AAAP website, select the “Register to Offer Space” link and follow the instructions
to register. Instructional guides and video tutorials are offered on the AAAP homepage and in the “HELP”
tab on the AAAP website. Once registered, interested parties may enter offers during any “Open Period”.
For technical assistance with AAAP, email leasing@gsa.gov.

The Open Period is the 1st through the 7th of each month, ending at 7:30 p.m. (ET) unless otherwise
stated by the Government and unless the 7th falls on a weekend or Federal Holiday. If the 7th falls on a
weekend or Federal Holiday, the Open Period will end at 7:30 PM (ET) on the next business day. Refer to
AAAP RLP paragraph 3.02 for more details on the offer submission process. The Government reserves
the right to allow for multiple Open Periods prior to selecting an offer for award to meet this specific space
requirement. Offers cannot be submitted during the Closed Period and will not be considered for projects
executed during that time period.
Lease award will be made to the lowest price, technically acceptable offer, without negotiations, based
upon the requirements in this advertisement and in the RLP requirements package found on the AAAP
website. During an Open Period, offerors will be permitted to submit new offers or modify existing offers.
Offerors can draft an offer at any time; however, you can only submit an offer during the Open Period.
The offered space must comply with the requirements in this advertisement and the RLP and must meet
Federal Government, State, and Local jurisdiction requirements, including requirements for fire and life
safety, security, accessibility, seismic, energy, and sustainability standards in accordance with the terms
of the Lease. The Lease and all documents that constitute the Lease package can be found at
https://leasing.gsa.gov/leasing/s/AAAP-PortalHome.
If you have previously submitted an offer in FY 2024, the AAAP application has a copy feature which will
allow existing offers to be copied over to the FY 2025 RLP in order to avoid having to re-enter all of the
data manually. Please be sure to review FY25 AAAP RLP Package and each page within the AAAP
Application prior to submitting your offer as some of the questions have changed. You must re-enter your
space and rates on the ‘Space and Rates’ tab in the AAAP. Your previous offered space will not be
copied.
