About this opportunity
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), specifically the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Marketing and Regulatory Programs Business Services division, is seeking to lease office and flex space in Rochester, New York. The procurement requires between 960 and 1,010 assignable square feet of office space within a defined geographic area bounded by I-390, I-590, and RT-31/Monroe Avenue to the north, I-90/New York State Thruway to the south, RT-65/Clover Street to the east, and RT-383/Scottsville Road and RT-84/East River Road to the west. Prospective lessors must provide fully serviced lease space that meets federal requirements for fire safety, accessibility, seismic resilience, and sustainability standards, and the space cannot be located in a one-percent-annual-chance floodplain. The government will evaluate proposals based on economic advantage, considering factors such as space availability, relocation costs including physical move expenses, tenant improvement replication, telecommunications infrastructure requirements, and potential agency downtime. Expressions of Interest are due by November 24, 2025, with an estimated market survey completion date of December 8, 2025, and target occupancy of March 1, 2026.
This procurement carries no set-aside designations and represents a lease opportunity rather than a specific goods or services contract with a defined award value. The USDA currently occupies office space in Rochester under an existing lease that is expiring, prompting consideration of alternative locations only if economically advantageous. Prospective lessors should note the requirement for compliance with Section 889 of the FY19 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) regarding telecommunications prohibitions. The full-term lease is structured for up to 10 years with a firm term of up to 5 years, and one surface parking space is required. Interested parties must submit their Expressions of Interest by the November 24, 2025 deadline to be considered in the market survey and evaluation process.
