Redacted Justification - 5FL0619.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a lease extension, prepared by the General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service. The GSA currently leases 10,710.00 ABOA/12,661.00 rentable square feet under lease number LFL62530, and is seeking a 12-month extension without full and open competition. The government requires this extension to continue operations at the current location, avoiding potential holdover and disruption, with the existing rental rate deemed fair and reasonable based on recent market research conducted in the Miami Lakes, FL area.

The justification cites 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) as statutory authority, specifically noting "only one responsible source" will satisfy agency requirements. The lease extension is supported by the fact that the government has encountered unexpected delays outside its control in acquiring replacement space. The anticipated rental rate falls within the current market range, and remaining at the current location will allow the agency to continue operations without interruption. The document includes certifications from the GSA Lease Contracting Officer and the document preparer, affirming the accuracy and completeness of the information provided.
