The U.S. Government currently occupies office and related space in a building under lease in Washington, DC that will be expiring. The Government intends to supersede this lease, but will consider alternative space if economically advantageous. In making this determination, the Government will consider, among other things, the availability of alternative space that potentially can satisfy the Government’s requirements, as well as costs likely to be incurred through relocating, such as physical move costs and replication of tenant improvements and telecommunication infrastructure, non-productive agency downtime, and costs, including rent, related to vacating the current location prior to lease expiration.

The Government’s decision regarding whether to relocate will be based, in part, on information received in response to this notification. In the event that a potentially acceptable offer fails to provide required information as part of its response to this notification, the Government reserves the right to assume that the building in question cannot meet the Government’s requirements.

Not all minimum requirements are reflected in this advertisement.

Entities are advised to familiarize themselves with the telecommunications prohibitions outlined under Section 889 of the FY19 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). ). For more information, visit:
