About this file

This document is an exhibit listing laws, regulations, executive orders, OMB circulars, and policies applicable to federal leasing actions. The compilation serves as a reference guide for agencies undertaking lease actions pursuant to a delegation of authority and is not a solicitation, statement of work, or procurement requirement. The document provides citations to 51 authorities organized into four categories: Laws (32 items), Executive Orders (13 items), Regulations (2 items), and Policy (4 items).

The laws referenced address foundational federal contracting requirements including the Competition in Contracting Act, Davis-Bacon Act, and Drug-Free Workplace Act, along with specialized authorities such as the Secure Federal Leases from Espionage and Suspicious Entanglement Act and the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act provisions on source selection and telecommunications equipment restrictions. The executive orders cover federal space management, environmental considerations including floodplain and wetlands protection, federal contractor wage and sick leave requirements, and climate and sustainability initiatives. The regulations and policy references point to the General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation Part 570, the Federal Management Regulation, and OMB Circular A-11 for lease scoring guidance. The document explicitly encourages agencies to consult with legal counsel regarding applicability of these authorities to specific lease actions.
