Summary

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a lease extension. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is seeking to extend its current lease for office and warehouse space located at 2755 Mission Boulevard, Kingman, Arizona 86401. The lease (L02PL00235) currently encompasses 17,787 usable square feet, consisting of 13,487 square feet of office space and 4,300 square feet of warehouse space. The current lease expires July 15, 2024, and the BLM requests a five-year extension through July 15, 2029, with the incumbent landlord, without conducting full and open competition.

The justification demonstrates that the extension is necessary because the Kingman Field Office is a newer lease facility with no prior extensions, and termination would disrupt delivery of public services and operations. A market survey conducted December 7, 2023, identified comparable annual rental rates within the market range of the proposed extension. The cost-benefit analysis shows significant government savings by remaining in the existing facility compared to relocating to alternative space, including avoided moving costs for telecommunications, data systems, and physical relocation, as well as tenant improvement allowances. The estimated annual rental cost for the extended term and total contract value (including CPI adjustments) are redacted in the document. The contracting officer certifies that the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable, and notes that zero interested parties responded to the pre-solicitation notice published on the System for Award Management on December 6, 2023, while only the incumbent lessor expressed interest.
