About this opportunity
The General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service Central Office is seeking to lease approximately 3,540-3,717 ABOA square feet of office and specialized space in Newark, New Jersey for a federal tenant, likely the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). The lease will require a complex facility with specific security and operational requirements, including 15 reserved structured/secured parking spaces, and spaces must be located on the 2nd floor or higher, with some flexibility for 1st floor placement. Critical space requirements include support areas for evidence and drug storage, interview rooms, and holding rooms, with the understanding that employees will be carrying firearms. The procurement demands strict location restrictions, including not being within 1,000 walkable feet of drug-free zones or social service facilities, and cannot be co-located with other government agencies or firms associated with criminal elements. Expressions of interest are due by February 7, 2025, with an estimated market survey planned for mid-February 2025 and a target occupancy date of June 1, 2026.
The procurement is not designated for any specific set-aside category and will be open to competitive bidding. The lease term is structured for 15 years, with 13 years firm and one 5-year option available, providing long-term stability for the government tenant. Additional requirements include 24/7/365 facility access, rooftop antenna mounting rights, loading dock and freight elevator access, and comprehensive compliance with government standards for fire safety, accessibility, seismic integrity, and sustainability. Offerors must also ensure the proposed space is not located in a 1-percent-annual chance floodplain and must comply with Section 889 NDAA telecommunications prohibitions. While no specific budget range is disclosed, the comprehensive requirements suggest a sophisticated and secure facility that will demand significant investment from potential lessors in the nonresidential building sector.
