Quick Summary
The General Services Administration (GSA) has published a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a succeeding lease of office space in Myrtle Beach, SC. This justification outlines the intent to negotiate directly with the incumbent lessor for space at 601 19th Ave N. to continue housing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The current lease expires July 31, 2026.
Purpose & Scope
The GSA intends to procure 4,185 ANSI/BOMA occupancy area square feet (4,365 rentable square feet) of office and related space for the IRS. The IRS has confirmed its continuing need for this specific location. No agency-requested improvements to the existing space are required.
Contract Details
This document pertains to a succeeding lease, indicating a continuation of the current arrangement. The estimated cost and annual cost of the succeeding lease are detailed but redacted in the provided justification. The delineated area for the lease is specified as: North: 29th Avenue North, South: Highway 501 to 3rd Avenue South, East: Ocean Boulevard, West: Highway 17.
Justification Basis
The statutory authority cited for this non-competitive action is 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), implemented through GSAR 570.402. This authority is used when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements, and awarding to another offeror would result in substantial duplication of costs. The justification highlights that relocating the IRS would incur significant costs, including move and replication expenses, which are not expected to be recovered through competition.
Market Research
Market research was conducted, including an advertisement on SAM.gov on September 5, 2025, and outreach via CoStar, local brokers, and LoopNet. The incumbent lessor was the only entity to express interest. The lessor's performance under the current lease has met Government expectations.
Eligibility / Set-Aside
Not applicable, as this is a justification for a sole-source award to an incumbent lessor, not a competitive solicitation.
