About this opportunity
The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 4 issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for a lease extension for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms facility located at 2109 University Ave, Oxford, MS under contract LMS62559. The justification is based on GSAR 570.405 due to unexpected delays outside the government's control in acquiring replacement space, where awarding to another offeror would result in substantial duplication of costs not recoverable through competition. The lease extension provides office building rental services for a 24-month period beyond the current lease expiration date of August 31, 2025, to protect the government's occupancy rights and avoid holdover tenancy costs. The contract was awarded on June 17, 2025, to an unknown vendor for an undisclosed amount, though the annual rent is confirmed to be within the Simplified Lease Acquisition Threshold. The sole source approach is justified by the government's need to maintain continuous occupancy while securing replacement space and avoiding the substantial costs associated with relocating and then potentially relocating again in the near term.
Notice text
The decision to pursue a lease extension is supported by GSAR 570.405 due the government encountering unexpected delays outside of its control in acquiring replacement space. 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.
Awarded contract LMS62559 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2025-06-17.
