About this opportunity
The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 1 published this Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for a lease renewal of office space on behalf of the Social Security Administration. The justification covers the renewal of a lease for 11,128 ABOA/13,131 rentable square feet of office space located at 151 Warren Street in Lowell, Massachusetts, with the current lease expiring on January 1, 2026. The sole source award was justified under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) because only the incumbent lessor, American Stonehenge Realty Trust, can meet the SSA's specific requirements for a first-floor location within Lowell's Central Business District with two passenger elevators and a unisex bathroom. GSA's market research identified only one potentially acceptable location meeting these criteria, and the agency seeks to avoid substantial relocation costs while leveraging existing tenant improvements, including a barrier wall investment of approximately $[redacted] made in FY 2017. The proposed 5-year lease renewal carries an estimated total contract value that has been redacted for competitive reasons, with the original contract GS-01P-LMA04793 awarded on February 28, 2024.
Notice text
This contract was awarded non-competitively based on 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) and GSAR 570.401. 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 GS-01P-LMA04793 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2024-02-28.
