About this opportunity
The General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking to lease office space in Asheville, North Carolina through this pre-solicitation notice posted on January 26, 2026. The procurement is for approximately 11,430 usable square feet of office space with 30 surface parking spaces, requiring a fully serviced lease compliant with federal fire safety, accessibility, seismic, and sustainability standards. The space must be located outside the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain and cannot be co-located with a daycare, school, US Attorney's Office, or Federal Public Defender. GSA will evaluate proposals based on the availability of alternative space meeting government requirements and the costs associated with relocation, including physical move costs, tenant improvement replication, and telecommunications infrastructure expenses. The deadline for submitting Expressions of Interest is February 13, 2026, with the initial notice due date of February 9, 2026.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and concerns the current incumbent lease in Asheville, NC, though no specific incumbent contractor name is identified in the notice. The lease terms include a 10-year full term with a 5-year firm term, and prospective lessors will receive a tenant improvement allowance of $56.20 per rentable square foot (or $0.00 if incumbent) plus an additional $12.00 per square foot for amortized capital costs for non-incumbent proposals. The Government currently occupies the full 11,430 square feet of space, and the target occupancy date for any new lease is October 9, 2027. Interested parties should submit Expressions of Interest to Elizabeth McCullough, LCO, at Elizabeth.McCullough@gsa.gov, including location, square footage, and rental rate information.
