Quick Summary
The General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS) Office of Leasing, has published a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a three-year lease extension in Tampa, FL. This action is a short-term measure to protect occupancy until a long-term competitive procurement for a new lease can be completed.
Scope of Action
This justification outlines the rationale for negotiating a lease extension with the current lessor for approximately 41,514 Rentable Square Feet (RSF) of office and related space, plus 115 parking spaces. The current lease (GS-04P-LFL41065) is set to expire on February 28, 2026. The extension is necessary to provide sufficient time for the GSA to conduct a competitive procurement process for a new, long-term lease, which is anticipated to be for a fifteen (15) year term with an estimated delivery date of Spring 2029.
Rationale for Extension
The decision to extend with the current lessor without full and open competition is based on several factors, including:
- Avoiding significant relocation and replication costs.
- Utilizing existing tenant improvements.
- Market analysis indicating the current rent is below market rate.
