    Description

    The General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking to finalize a lease for office space under project number 1FL2517 in Zephyrhills, Florida. The procurement is justified as a sole source acquisition due to the unique requirements of the tenant agency, which necessitates a specific location that cannot be met by alternative sites. This decision follows extensive market research indicating that pursuing full and open competition would not yield cost-effective solutions, as relocation and duplication costs could not be recovered. Interested parties can reach out to LaVar Jamison at lavar.jamison@gsa.gov or 954.232.9031, or Danilo J. Galan at danilo.galan@gsa.gov or 954.233.9249 for further details.

    1FL2517 - Zephyrhills - Memo To File - Absence of Competition (Redacted).pdf
    This document, a "Memo to File" for Project Number: 1FL2517, explains the absence of competition for lease number LFL50841, which expires on 12/28/2022. The government determined that the current land-only space is the most advantageous location for the tenant agency. Market research, including COSTAR, SAM Advertisement (which yielded no responses), and LoopNet, was conducted. The decision to pursue a sole source acquisition is justified by a cost-based rationale. A succeeding lease analysis tool indicated that the government could not recover relocation and duplication costs through full and open competition, leading to expected cost savings. Additionally, the agency's mission at this location requires a unique site that cannot be satisfied by alternative locations. The memo was prepared by LaVar Jamison, Leasing Specialist, and approved by Danilo Galan, Lease Contracting Officer, on 11/29/2022.
