Industry Day -R402--Real Estate Acquisition Support Services

The Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Facilities Acquisition is hosting a virtual Industry Day on Wednesday, January 14, 2026, from 2:00PM to 3:00PM EDT, for the forthcoming solicitation of a requirement for Real Estate Acquisition Support Services. A Sources Sought Notice was previously posted for this requirement back on November 19, 2025.

A summary of the services are as follows:

VA provides space for VA employees and clients for medical and medical related services, as well as research, warehouse and administrative offices. The Office of Construction and Facilities Management (CFM) is the implementation arm of VA s leased and owned property portfolio, with three Administrations as its clients: Veterans Health Administration (VHA); National Cemetery Administration (NCA); and Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA). CFM satisfies client space requirements through competitive lease procurement actions. VA leases space in both rural and urban areas throughout the United States, District of Columbia and any U.S. territories, including American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.Â

Within CFM, the Office of Real Property (ORP) is the entity responsible for management of lease procurement activities. ORP s Project Managers (PM) utilize the services of real estate brokers for lease management projects. Broker services are essential to support effective communication between ORP and offerors in procurements; provide expertise in market research and commercial real estate transactions and financing; data and documentation organization, assembly and storage; and increased efficiency in contracting actions for projects that involve multiple vendors.

VA leases space by delegation of authority from the General Services Administration (GSA) on a project-by-project basis. Federal laws and regulations require the Government to procure leased space utilizing competitive procedures, unless otherwise justified.

Specifically, the services of interest for this Sources Sought include the following:
