About this opportunity
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), a division of the Department of the Interior, is seeking to lease office and related space in Needles, California to replace its current facility under lease number L04PL00292, which expires on August 9, 2026. The BLM requires between 11,000 and 14,000 assignable square feet of contiguous office space with 91 parking spaces within the city limits of Needles. The Government will evaluate proposals based on economic advantage, considering not only rental rates but also relocation costs including moving expenses, tenant improvements, furniture installation, and telecommunications infrastructure setup. Key requirements include 24/7 access, convenient vehicle access for employees and the public, a five-year lease term with occupancy by August 1, 2026, and the provision of all utilities and services as part of the rental consideration. Properties located in 100-year floodplains are not eligible, subleases will not be considered, and a Government standard lease document will be used. The deadline for interested parties to respond to this pre-solicitation notice is May 15, 2026.
This opportunity carries no set-aside designations and does not identify any current contractor or incumbent. The notice does not specify an award value or budget range, as the Government's evaluation will focus on determining whether relocating to alternative space presents economic advantages compared to renewing the existing lease. The current lease space, located at lease number L04PL00292, expires August 9, 2026, giving potential respondents approximately three months to propose suitable facilities and demonstrate why relocation would be economically beneficial. The required occupancy date of August 1, 2026, indicates the BLM needs minimal disruption to operations during any transition. Interested parties should note that all tenant improvements, utilities, supplies, and services must be included in the proposed rental rate, with no additional costs to be borne by the Government beyond the stated lease amount.
