This SFO may only be amended in writing by the RECO. Amendments may modify the terms of this SFO and any attachments to the SFO.
This SFO includes a draft Lease setting forth the Lease term and other terms and conditions required by the FAA. The draft is for informational purposes only. Do not complete the Lease form. Upon selection for award, the FAA will finalize the Lease document based on the awarded Offeror's final rent and other price data and transmit the completed Lease, including any appropriate attachments, to the successful Offeror for execution.
The Offeror's executed Lease shall constitute a binding offer. No Lease shall be formed until the RECO executes the Lease and delivers a signed copy to the Offeror.
2. SFO Definitions (07/2022) 6.1.1-3 Insert in all SFOs. For purposes of this document, the following definitions apply:

Lease- refers to the legal instrument used by the FAA to acquire a leasehold interest for exclusive possessory rights/interest in real property for a defined period of time. A lease is considered a contract for the acquisition of real property. For purposes of this document, Lease and Contract are interchangeable.

If the Government elects to communicate with Offerors, the Government may conduct written or oral communications with any and/or all Offerors, and may reduce the firms participating in the competition to only those Offerors most likely to receive award. Offerors eliminated from competition will be notified by the Real Estate Contracting Officer.
B. In addition, the FAA reserves the right to conduct communications with any individual competing Offeror, or all competing Offerors, as the situation warrants. Communications with one or more Offerors does not require discussions with all Offerors. When communications are conducted, FAA may negotiate the rental price for the initial term, any renewal periods, and any other aspect of the offer relating to price as deemed necessary by the FAA. Although a designee may enter communications on behalf of the Government, only the Real Estate Contracting Officer has the authority to bind the Government.
C. As a result of communications, the RECO may allow reasonable opportunity to submit revisions to initial offers including any cost or price revisions if in the best interest of the FAA.

The Government will verify the amount of ABOA SF and will convert the rentable prices offered to ABOA prices, which will subsequently be used in the price evaluation.
B. Evaluation of offered prices will be based on the annual price per ABOA SF, including all required option periods. The Government will perform present value price evaluation by reducing the prices per ABOA SF to a composite annual ABOA SF price, as follows: Parking and wareyard areas will be excluded from the total square footage but not from the price. For different types of space, the gross annual per ABOA SF price will be determined by dividing the total annual rental by the total ABOA square footage excluding these areas.
C. Free rent will be evaluated in the year in which it is offered. The gross annual price is adjusted to reflect free rent.
D. Acceptable rent structures are:
(1) Fixed Rent (where the rent amount and the time at which it is required to be paid are fixed and determinable under the terms of the lease agreement as of the lease date);
(2) Step-up Rent (where the lease clearly defines future rent increases at set times throughout the life of the lease).
If the offer utilizes one of these preferred rent structures, and annual adjustments in operating expenses will not be made, the gross annual price will be discounted annually at 5 percent to yield a gross present value cost (PVC).
