About this opportunity
The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 1 issued a sole source justification for leasing office space in Providence, Rhode Island, specifically for a superseding lease renewal at 380 Westminster Street. The contract, awarded on May 23, 2025, under reference GS-01P-LRI00741, provides 21,489 ABOA/24,770 rentable square feet of office space for multiple federal agencies including the US Marshals Service, Bankruptcy Court, DOT Federal Highway Administration, and Social Security Administration. The justification is based on 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), with GSA determining that relocating these agencies would result in substantial unnecessary costs to the government that would not be recovered through competitive procurement. The lease term spans 10 years commencing December 31, 2024, though the awarded vendor name and contract value have been redacted from public disclosure. GSA conducted market research on October 10, 2024, identifying six potential alternative locations, but received no other expressions of interest beyond the incumbent property owner, supporting their rationale for sole source procurement. The procurement falls under the lease/rental of office buildings category, reflecting the government's need to maintain continuity of operations for these critical federal agencies in their current location.
Notice text
This contract was awarded non-competitively based on 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) and GSAR 570.402. The use of the sole source authority is appropriate where it is determined that award to any other offeror would result in substantial duplication of costs to the Government that are not expected to be recovered through competition.
The full Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition is attached.
Awarded contract GS-01P-LRI00741 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2025-05-23.
