Quick Summary
The General Services Administration (GSA), specifically the PUBLIC BUILDINGS SERVICE (PBS R2 OFFICE OF LEASING), has issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for the renewal of a 5-year lease for office space in Morristown, NJ. This justification supports negotiating a renewal option with the incumbent Lessor to continue occupancy at the current location without full and open competition. The current lease expires on February 16, 2026, with the proposed renewal commencing on February 17, 2026.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for 21,108 ABOA / 26,274 rentable square feet (RSF) of office space, including 66 reserved structured/inside parking spaces. The existing space is already built out and meets mission requirements, featuring a loading dock, freight elevator, meeting rooms, and private offices.
Contract & Timeline
- Opportunity Type: Justification (not a solicitation)
- Proposed Term: Five (5) years
- Proposed Start Date: February 17, 2026
- Product/Service Code: X1AA (Lease/Rental Of Office Buildings)
- Published Date: February 23, 2026
Set-Aside
Not applicable, as this is a sole-source justification under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1).
Evaluation
This document justifies a sole-source procurement, citing that only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements without substantial duplication of costs. Market research, including a 14-day advertisement on SAM.gov and analysis of commercial real estate data (CoStar, CBRE-EA, REIS), yielded no responses. A cost-benefit analysis indicated that relocating would incur significant duplication of costs that would not be recovered through competition. The proposed renewal rental rate is deemed fair and reasonable and within current market ranges.
Additional Notes
No space alterations are required, though a refresh of carpet and paint may occur post-award at no additional cost to the Government. The justification includes a cost-benefit analysis (Exhibit A) and a Bullseye Market Report (Exhibit B). For inquiries, contact Raffaela Battiloro at raffaela.battiloro@gsa.gov.
