About this file
This is an exhibit template for a Request for Lease Proposals (RLP) that establishes submittal requirements and documentation standards specific to new construction lease offerings. The exhibit is designed to supplement the GSA Template R100 and applies only when newly constructed buildings represent the sole solution meeting the government's needs and existing buildings are not competing alternatives.
For new construction proposals, offerors must submit a Fire Protection and Life Safety (FPLS) submittal documenting the applicable Building Code edition and commitment to meet mandatory FPLS lease requirements. Projects of 10,000 RSF and above must include either LEED-NC Silver or Green Globes for New Construction (GG-NC) certification documentation, depending on the client agency's selection—with LEED requiring submission of a scorecard, credit achievement statements, and identification of USGBC LEED Accredited Professionals, while Green Globes requires Two Green Globes level documentation and optional identification of GBI Green Globes Professionals. Additionally, when the RLP stipulates a required occupancy date, offerors must provide a detailed construction schedule identifying permitting, design, and construction phase completion dates aligned with the government's required occupancy date and lease milestones. The template was created in February 2026 with updates in May 2026 to modify terminology from "attachment" to "exhibit." This exhibit is specifically tailored for the VA's Olympia, Washington CBOC lease solicitation (36C24W26R0012) requiring 33,992 RSF of leased medical space under a 20-year term with 15 firm and 5 soft years.
