U.S. General Services Administration

PBS, Office of Leasing

JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

PROJECT NUMBER: 4CA1628

Agency Name: SSA

1. NATURE AND/OR DESCRIPTION OF ACTION BEING APPROVED.

The General Services Administration currently leases 19,954.00 ABOA/19,974.00 rentable square feet (RSF) of office space at 2660 PARK MARINA DRIVE, REDDING, CA under lease number LCA01701 for the SSA. The current lease expired September 19, 2025. Approval is requested to negotiate a lease extension with the incumbent Lessor without full and open competition for continued occupancy at this leased location. The procedures for pursuing a lease extension are detailed in GSAR 570.405: Lease extensions.

2.

(INCLUDING ESTIMATED VALUE).

The Government requires an extension of the current lease for 60 months to commence on September 20, 2025. The estimated cost of this lease extension is per rentable square feet per year for an annual cost of and a total contract value of .

3. IDENTIFICATION OF STATUTORY AUTHORITY PERMITTING OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION.

41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1): Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This statutory authority is implemented through: FAR 6.103-1 (GSA RFO-2025-06) and GSAR 570.405. In accordance with GSAR 570.405, use of the sole source authority is appropriate when the Government experiences a delay in acquiring replacement space in situations such as, but not limited to, the following:

The agency occupying the leased space is scheduled to move into other Federally controlled space, but encounters unexpected delays in preparing the new space for occupancy

The government encounters unexpected delays outside of its control in acquiring replacement space

The government is consolidating various agencies and the contracting officer needs to extend the terms of some leases to establish a common expiration date

The agency occupying the space has encountered delays in planning for a potential relocation to other federally controlled space due to documented organizational, financial, or other uncertainties

4.

NATURE OF THE ACQUISITION REQUIRES THE USE OF THE AUTHORITY CITED.

It is in the best interest of the Government to remain at the current location during the extension period.

SSA is developing long term requirements to significantly reduce the square footage that they require.

Award to other than the current Lessor would require relocation of the entire requirement and would cause SSA to incur move and replication costs that would not be recovered through competition.
