3MD0371 OTFO - Redacted OTFO.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOTFOC) document for the GSA's renewal of lease GS-11P-LMD12699 at 6006 Executive Boulevard in Rockville, MD for the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The lease covers 29,942 rentable square feet (28,704 ABOA SF) of office space used as a child care center and includes a 16,000 SF fenced outdoor play area.

The 5-year renewal term will commence on April 27, 2025, with an annual cost redacted per RSF. GSA conducted market research identifying 64 potential locations and posted an advertisement for expressions of interest from July 30 to August 12, 2024, but received only one response from the incumbent lessor. The space must meet ISC Level II security requirements and be located within Prince George's or Montgomery counties. The incumbent location was deemed the best value option after a cost-benefit analysis showed that relocation costs would exceed savings from alternative locations. The contracting officer certified on September 17, 2024 that the renewal is in the government's best interest, with subsequent approvals through September 20, 2024 from various GSA officials including the PBS Regional Commissioner.
