About this opportunity

The General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service Region 1 is seeking lease proposals for office space in Bridgeport, Connecticut through Request for Lease Proposals (RLP) Number 3CT0125. The government requires a fully serviced lease for office space ranging from 7,929 to 8,346 square feet (ABOA) within a specific delineated area of Bridgeport, with strict requirements including contiguous space on one floor, minimum ceiling heights of 8'5" to maximum 12', two lines of windows for natural lighting, and proximity to public transportation and parking within 0.25 miles. The space must meet federal standards for fire safety, accessibility, seismic requirements, and sustainability, while being excluded from the 1-percent-annual chance floodplain and avoiding locations near establishments selling alcohol, marijuana, firearms, or detention facilities. Amendment No. 1 clarifies that security requirements will be Facility Security Level I (FSL I) with no Building Specific Amortized Capital (BSAC) allowance included. Proposals must be submitted electronically through the Requirement Specific Acquisition Platform (RSAP) by July 3, 2025 at 4:00 PM EDT, with estimated occupancy beginning April 24, 2027.

This solicitation does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified lessors of nonresidential buildings. The lease structure includes a full 15-year term with a firm 10-year commitment, providing long-term stability for the selected property owner. The government requires a fully serviced lease arrangement where all utilities, janitorial services, supplies, and tenant alterations are included in the rental consideration, eliminating separate utility and maintenance costs for the government. Performance will take place in Bridgeport, Connecticut within the specifically defined geographic boundaries that encompass the downtown and waterfront areas. While no specific budget range is disclosed in the solicitation documents, the combination of the square footage requirements, full-service lease structure, and 15-year term indicates a substantial long-term real estate commitment for federal office operations in the Bridgeport market.
