Appendix C - Space Allocation Summary

This document is a space allocation appendix supporting the Washington State Auditor's Office market search for office space in Benton County. The State Auditor's Office is seeking approximately 2,200 BOMA (Building Owners and Managers Association) rentable square feet of office space within the Benton County area. The appendix establishes the physical space requirements and allocation parameters that prospective landlords and property managers must accommodate to meet the agency's operational needs. The space allocation specifications serve as a foundational requirement for all proposals submitted in response to this market search, ensuring that offered properties meet or exceed the defined square footage and functional layout requirements necessary for the agency's local operations.

The document functions as a technical specification guide that vendors must reference when evaluating their available properties and preparing their responses to the market search. By establishing clear space allocation criteria in this appendix, the State Auditor's Office ensures consistency in proposal evaluation and facilitates comparison among potential locations that meet the minimum spatial requirements. This standardized approach allows the state to objectively assess which available properties in the Benton County market can adequately serve the agency's operational footprint and functional requirements.
