A. This Request for Lease Proposals (RLP) sets forth instructions and requirements for proposals for a Succeeding or Superseding Lease where the Government is currently in occupancy and possession of the leased Premises. Unless otherwise noted, the Government will accept the leased Premises in their current condition, with the exceptions outlined in the RLP documents. The Government will evaluate the proposal conforming to the RLP requirements in accordance with the Method of Award set forth below.
The Government will award the Lease subject to the conditions below.
B. Included in the RLP documents is a lease template setting forth the lease term and other terms and conditions of the Lease contemplated by this RLP and a GSA Proposal to Lease Space (GSA Form 1364) on which Offeror shall submit its offered rent and other price data, together with required information and submissions. The Lease paragraph titled “Definitions and General Terms” shall apply to the terms of this RLP.
C. Do not attempt to complete the lease template. Upon selection for award, GSA will transcribe the successful Offeror’s final offered rent and other price data included on the GSA Form 1364 into the lease and transmit the completed Lease, including any appropriate attachments, to the successful Offeror for execution. Neither the RLP nor any other part of an Offeror’s proposal shall be part of the Lease except to the extent expressly incorporated therein. The Offeror should review the completed Lease for accuracy and consistency with his or her proposal, sign and date the first page, initial each subsequent page of the Lease, and return it to the Lease Contracting Officer (LCO).
D. The Offeror's executed Lease shall constitute a firm offer. No Lease shall be formed until the LCO executes the Lease and delivers a signed copy to the Offeror.
1.02 AMOUNT AND TYPE OF SPACE, LEASE TERM, AND OCCUPANCY DATE (OCT 2016)

1.07 AMENDMENTS TO THE RLP (JUN 2012)
This RLP may be amended by notice from the LCO. Amendments may modify the terms of this RLP, or the terms, conditions, and requirements of the Lease contemplated by the RLP.
1.08 LEASE DESCRIPTION (OCT 2021)
A. Offeror shall examine the Lease template included in the RLP documents to understand the Government's and the Lessor's respective rights and responsibilities under the contemplated Lease.
B. The Lease contemplated by this RLP includes:
1. The term of the Lease, and renewal option, if any.
2. Terms and Conditions of the Lease, including Definitions, Standards, and Formulas applicable to the Lease and this RLP.
3. Building Shell standards and requirements.
4. Information concerning the tenant agency's buildout requirements, to be supplemented after award.
5. Security Requirements.
6. A description of all services to be provided by the Lessor.
C. Should the Offeror be awarded the Lease, the terms of the Lease shall be binding upon the Lessor without regard to any statements contained in this RLP.
D. The Lease contemplated by this RLP is NOT a fully serviced lease. The lease is a turnkey Lease with rent that covers all Lessor costs, including all shell upgrades, TIs, operating costs, real estate taxes, and security upgrades. Any security upgrades will be the responsibility of the Government. Rent shall be based upon a proposed rental rate per Rentable Square Foot (RSF), limited by the offered rate and the maximum ABOA SF solicited under this RLP. The Tenant Improvements to be delivered by the Lessor shall be based upon information provided with this RLP and Lease, including Agency Specific Requirements (ASR). The Lessor shall design and build the TIs and will be compensated for the TI costs based upon turnkey pricing established under the Lease. Offerors are encouraged to consider the use of existing fit-out and other improvements to minimize waste. However, any existing improvements must be deemed equivalent to Lease requirements for new installation, and Offerors are cautioned to consider those requirements before assuming efficiencies in its TI costs resulting from use of existing improvements.
E. The security pricing process is described in a separate paragraph.
F. Upon completion and acceptance of the leased Space, the Space will be measured for establishing the actual annual rent, and the lease term shall commence. In instances involving an incumbent Lessor where the Government commences the lease term pending completion of TI and/or BSAC alterations, the Government shall withhold TI and/or BSAC rent pursuant to Section 1 of the Lease until such time as the TI and/or BSAC is completed and accepted by the Government. During the term of the Lease, rent will be adjusted for changes to the Lessor's operating costs and real estate taxes, pursuant to paragraphs set forth in the Lease.
G. Offerors are advised that doing business with the Government carries special responsibilities with respect to sustainability, fire protection and life safety, and security, as well as other requirements not typically found in private commercial leases. These are set forth both in the lease template and in the GSA Form 3517B, and will be made part of the Lease.
RLP NO. 9FL2495, PAGE 3 GSA TEMPLATE R100 (10/21)
1.09 RELATIONSHIP OF RLP BUILDING MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS AND LEASE OBLIGATIONS (OCT 2016)
The Lease establishes various requirements relating to the Building shell. Such requirements are not deemed TIs. There are certain Building requirements that are established as minimum requirements in this RLP. If the Lessor's Building does not meet the requirements at the time of award, the Lessor may still be awarded the Lease. However, as a condition of award, the Government will require Lessor to identify those Building improvements that will bring the Building into compliance with RLP requirements. Upon award of the Lease, completion of those Building improvements will become Lease obligations.
1.10 PRICING OF SECURITY REQUIREMENTS (OCT 2016)
A. The proposed Lease contains an attachment with the security requirements and obligations for the Building, which are based on the facility security level (FSL). The Federal Government determines the facility’s FSL rating, which ranges from FSL I to FSL IV.
The FSL is based on client agency mix, required size of space, number of employees, use of the space, location, configuration of the site and lot, and public access into and around the facility.
B. The security requirements attached to this Lease includes a list of security countermeasures that must be installed in the leased Space.
C. There shall be no charge to the Government for any items that already exist in the offered Building or facility.

B. Include as a specific obligation in its Lease proposal that improvements to bring the Building into compliance with Lease requirements will be completed prior to acceptance of the Space.
2.09 ENERGY INDEPENDENCE AND SECURITY ACT (OCT 2021)
A. The Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) establishes requirements for Government leases relating to energy efficiency standards and potential cost effective energy efficiency and conservation improvements.
RLP NO. 9FL2495, PAGE 6 GSA TEMPLATE R100 (10/21)
B. Unless one of the statutory exceptions listed in sub-paragraph C below applies, GSA may award a lease for a Building only if the Building has earned the ENERGY STAR® label conferred by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) within the most recent year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions. The term “most recent year” means that the date of award of the ENERGY STAR® label by EPA must not be more than 1 year prior to the due date of final proposal revisions. For example, an ENERGY STAR® label awarded by EPA on October 1, 2010, is valid for all lease procurements where final proposal revisions are due on or before September 30, 2011. In lieu of the above, all new Buildings being specifically constructed for the Government must achieve an ENERGY STAR® label within 18 months after occupancy by the Government. In addition, Offerors of the following Buildings shall also have up to 18 months after occupancy by the Government, or as soon thereafter as the Building is eligible for Energy Star® consideration, to achieve an Energy Star® label: 1) All existing Buildings that have had an Energy Star® label but are unable to obtain a label in the most recent year (i.e., within 12 months prior to the due date for final proposal revisions) because of insufficient occupancy; 2) Newly built Buildings that have used Energy® Star’s Target Finder tool and either achieved a “Designed to Earn the Energy Star®” certification or received an unofficial score (in strict adherence to Target Finder’s usage instructions, including the use of required energy modeling) of 75 or higher prior to the due date for final proposal revisions and who are unable to obtain a label in the most recent year because of insufficient occupancy; 3) An existing Building that is unable to obtain a label because of insufficient occupancy but that can produce an indication, through the use of energy modeling or past utility and occupancy data input into Energy Star’s® Portfolio Manager tool or Target Finder, that it can receive an unofficial score of 75 or higher using all other requirements of Target Finder or Portfolio Manager, except for actual data from the most recent year. ENERGY STAR® tools and resources can be found at HTTPS://WWW.ENERGYSTAR.GOV/BUILDINGS/TOOLS-AND-RESOURCES.
C. EISA allows a Federal agency to lease Space in a Building that does not have an ENERGY STAR® Label if:
1. No Space is offered in a Building with an ENERGY STAR® Label that meets RLP requirements, including locational needs;
2. The agency will remain in a Building it currently occupies;
3. The Lease will be in a Building of historical, architectural, or cultural significance listed or eligible to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places; or
4. The Lease is for 10,000 RSF or less.
D. If one or more of the statutory exceptions applies, and the offered Space is not in a Building that has earned the ENERGY STAR® Label within one year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions, Offerors are required to include in their lease proposal an agreement to renovate the Building for all energy efficiency and conservation improvements that it has determined would be cost effective over the Firm Term of the Lease, if any, prior to acceptance of the Space (or not later than one year after the Lease Award Date of a succeeding or superseding lease). Such improvements may consist of, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) upgrades, including boilers, chillers, and Building Automation System (BAS)/Monitoring/Control System (EMCS).
2. Lighting Improvements.
3. Building Envelope Modifications.
NOTE: Additional information can be found on http://www.gsa.gov/leasing under “Green Leasing.”
E. The term "cost effective" means an improvement that will result in substantial operational cost savings to the landlord by reducing electricity or fossil fuel consumption, water, or other utility costs. The term "operational cost savings" means a reduction in operational costs to the landlord through the application of Building improvements that achieve cost savings over the Firm Term of the Lease sufficient to pay the incremental additional costs of making the Building improvements.
F. Instructions for obtaining an ENERGY STAR® Label are provided at http://www.energystar.gov/buildings/facility-owners-and-managers/existing-buildings/earn-recognition/energy-star-certification (use “Portfolio Manager” to apply). ENERGY STAR® tools and resources can be found at HTTPS://WWW.ENERGYSTAR.GOV/BUILDINGS/TOOLS-AND-RESOURCES. The ENERGY STAR® Building Upgrade Manual (http://www.energystar.gov/buildings/facility-owners-and-managers/existing-buildings/save-energy/comprehensive-approach/energy-star) and Building Upgrade Value Calculator (http://www.energystar.gov/buildings/tools-and-resources/building-upgrade-value-calculator) are tools which can be useful in considering energy efficiency and conservation improvements to Buildings.
G. If one or more of the statutory exceptions applies, and the offered Space is not in a Building that has earned the ENERGY STAR® Label within one year prior to the due date for final proposal revisions, the successful Offeror will be excused from performing any agreed-to energy efficiency and conservation renovations, and benchmarking with public disclosure (as provided in (I) below, if it obtains the ENERGY STAR® Label prior to the Government’s acceptance of the Space (or not later than one year after the Lease Award Date for succeeding and superseding leases).
H. If no improvements are proposed, the Offeror must demonstrate to the Government using the ENERGY STAR® Online Tools why no energy efficiency and conservation improvements are cost effective. If such explanation is unreasonable, the offer may be rejected.
https://www.energystar.gov/BUILDINGS/TOOLS-AND-RESOURCES https://www.energystar.gov/BUILDINGS/TOOLS-AND-RESOURCES
RLP NO. 9FL2495, PAGE 7 GSA TEMPLATE R100 (10/21)
I. As described in Section 3 of the Lease, successful Offerors meeting one of the statutory exceptions above must agree to benchmark and publicly disclose the Building’s current ENERGY STAR® score, using EPA’s Portfolio Manager online software application. See the Lease for additional details.
J. All new Buildings being specifically constructed for the Government must achieve the ENERGY STAR® Label within 18 months after occupancy by the Government.
K. As part of the cost effective upgrades specified under sub-paragraph D above, existing lighting systems must be upgraded to meet or exceed the stated lighting specifications in the Lease unless, with respect to upgrades otherwise in excess of the minimum stated requirements, Offeror can demonstrate, using the Building Upgrade Value Calculator discussed above, that such additional upgrades are not cost effective over the Firm Term of the Lease.

3.02 RECEIPT OF LEASE PROPOSALS (OCT 2021)
A. Online method - Submission through Lease Offer Platform (LOP):
1. Unless otherwise authorized by the LCO or his/her designated representative, offers may only be submitted electronically to GSA using the Lease Offer Platform/Requirement Specific Acquisition Platform (LOP/RSAP) located at https://lop.gsa.gov/RSAP. LOP enables Offerors to electronically offer space for lease to the Federal Government. The offer submission process is web-enabled, allowing all registered participants to submit and update offers to lease space to the Government in response to a single RLP for a specific space requirement.
2. In order to be considered for award, offers conforming to the requirements of the RLP shall be submitted through LOP/RSAP no later than 3/2/2022 at 11:59EST.
3. Offerors must submit all documentation identified in this RLP using the LOP/RSAP Application. The LOP/RSAP generates the Lessor's Annual Cost Statement (GSA Form 1217) and Proposal to Lease Space (GSA Form 1364) based on the entered data. These auto-populated forms are available for review at the end of the Application workflow and should be uploaded by the Offeror as part of his/her offer; there is no need for the Offeror to manually complete the attached blank version of these two forms. Any subsequent revisions to offer documents must be submitted through the LOP platform.
There is no paper-based submission process under this RLP and paper submissions will not be considered, unless otherwise authorized by the LCO.
B. There will be no public opening of offers, and all offers will be confidential until the Lease has been awarded. However, the Government may release proposals outside the Government such as to support contractors to assist in the evaluation of offers. Such Government contractors shall be required to protect the data from unauthorized disclosure.
3.03 PRICING TERMS (OCT 2021)
Offeror shall provide the following pricing information with its offer:
A. GSA Form 1217, Lessor’s Annual Cost Statement. Complete all sections of the 1217.
B. GSA Form 1364, Proposal to Lease Space. Complete all sections of the 1364, including, but not limited to:
1. A fully serviced Lease rate (gross rate) per ABOA and RSF, clearly itemizing the total Building shell rental, TI rate, Building Specific Amortized Capital (BSAC) rate, operating costs, and parking (itemizing all costs of parking above base local code requirements or otherwise already included in shell rent).
2. Improvements. All improvements in the base Building, lobbies, common areas, and core areas shall be provided by the
Lessor, at the Lessor’s expense. This Building shell rental rate shall also include, but is not limited to, property financing (exclusive of TIs and BSAC), insurance, taxes, management, profit, etc., for the Building. The Building shell rental rate shall also include all basic Building systems and common area buildout, including base Building lobbies, common areas, core areas, etc., exclusive of the ABOA Space offered as required in this RLP.
3. The annual cost per ABOA and rentable square foot (RSF) for the cost of services and utilities. This equals line 27 of GSA Form 1217, Lessor’s Annual Cost Statement, divided by the Building size (shown on the top of both GSA Form 1364, Proposal to Lease Space, and Form 1217) for ABOA and RSF, respectively.
