About this opportunity

The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service has awarded a sole-source lease renewal to the incumbent lessor at 321 1st Ave E, Albany, Oregon 97321, on behalf of the Mine Safety and Health Administration, under a justification for other than full and open competition.

The contracting officer justified the sole-source action under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(A), citing substantial duplication costs that cannot be recovered through competition. Market research conducted through SAM.gov postings (December 11-26, 2023 and February 26-March 5, 2026) and searches on LoopNet and Crexi yielded zero responses and no acceptable alternative locations. MSHA's mission requirement to remain within Albany city limits cannot be satisfied by any other available office space. Cost-benefit analysis demonstrates that remaining in the current location generates $252,555 in aggregate cost savings over 10 years ($16.71 per assignable square foot annually) compared to relocation, with total rental payments of $1,659,570.32 versus $1,912,125.24 for the lowest-priced alternative.

The lease covers 3,146 assignable square feet (3,618 rentable square feet) for a 10-year term with 5 years firm, succeeding expiring lease LOR07190 (expiration August 16, 2026). The contracting officer cited GSAM 570.402-1(a), 570.203-2, 570.402-4, 570.402-5, and 570.402-6 as statutory authority. Place of performance is Albany, OR.
