Description

The General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking approval for a sole source procurement to negotiate a renewal option for the lease of office space utilized by the Federal Public Defender Service (FPD) at 411 E Bonneville Ave., Las Vegas, Nevada. The current lease encompasses 40,353 ABOA square feet, with an existing rental rate of $28.47 per RSF, set to expire on August 21, 2025. The GSA has determined that renewing the lease without full competition is justified due to the significant costs associated with relocation and the limited availability of alternative options, which could disrupt operational efficiency given the proximity to the Lloyd D. George Federal Courthouse. For further inquiries, interested parties may contact Cameron Jones at Cameron.jones@gsa.gov.

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking approval to negotiate a renewal option for the lease of office space used by the Federal Public Defender Service (FPD) at 411 E Bonneville Ave., Las Vegas, Nevada. Currently leasing 40,353 ABOA square feet, the existing rental rate is $28.47 per RSF, with the lease expiring on August 21, 2025. The GSA asserts that renewing without full competition is warranted under statutory authority due to the unique situation that a relocation would incur significant costs not recoverable through competition. Market research identified limited alternative options, with two responses outside the defined area. Staying in the current location is deemed essential as it is close to the Lloyd D. George Federal Courthouse, thereby ensuring continued operational efficiency for the FPD. The anticipated rental rate for the renewal option is considered fair and reasonable based on local market analysis. The document summarizes regulatory backing, market research, and expert certifications supporting the necessity of this competitive exception, ensuring government operational needs are met effectively and economically while avoiding unnecessary relocation costs.
