The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is soliciting commercial retail and office space in Antioch, Illinois, for the establishment of an Armed Forces Career Center, requiring approximately 1,254 square feet of usable space within a quarter mile of 658 and 660 Route 173, ZIP code 60002. The facility must include a secondary egress, dedicated parking for four government-owned vehicles accessible 24/7, and additional parking for employees and customers within four blocks. Daytime janitorial services are mandatory, and signage must ensure maximum visibility. Properties adjacent to adult entertainment venues, bars, nightclubs, drug rehabilitation centers, marijuana dispensaries, gun shops, or liquor stores will be disqualified due to non-compatibility with military recruiting missions. All lessors must be actively registered in SAM.gov with a valid CAGE code prior to the submission deadline of July 8, 2026. Proposals must include a completed Rental Proposal Worksheet, proof of SAM.gov registration, and the current floor plan. Lease terms are typically five years with the government retaining the right to terminate with reasonable notice, but significant contributions toward build-out costs may be required to support a firm five-year commitment. Non-negotiable general conditions, construction specifications, and janitorial standards must be strictly adhered to, while the first four pages of the lease contain negotiable terms. Evaluation of submissions will prioritize location, full compliance with all technical and security requirements, timely submission, competitive pricing, and qualitative alignment with mission needs. The solicitation, identified as W912QR-ANTIOCHILFY27, falls under NAICS code 531190 and is governed by a comprehensive set of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and General Services Administration Regulation (GSAR) clauses that impose stringent operational and compliance obligations. GSAR deviations in clauses related to subleasing, substitution of tenant agencies, delivery and condition, and integrated agreements indicate modified standard terms specific to federal leasing. Security requirements under FAR 52.240-92 and Personal Identity Verification mandates under FAR 52.204-9 and GSAR 552.204-9 suggest contractor personnel may require access to federal systems or facilities, though no classification level is specified.

SOLICITATON FOR OFFER


LOCATION:   Antioch, IL


The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Recruiting Facilities Program, is soliciting offers for approximately 1,254 square feet (useable) of commercial retail/office space located a ¼ mile radius of 658 & 660 Route 173, Antioch, IL.  Office space will be located within the zip code of 60002.  Space will need to include a secondary egress; have adequate parking (prefer it is sign designated) for 4 Government-owned vehicles 24 hours a day/7 days a week, as well as adequate parking within 4 blocks for employee and customer vehicles; include daytime janitorial services; and include adequate signage for maximum visibility. Sites that are located adjacent to adult entertainment shops (i.e. book stores, video stores, or theatres), night clubs/bars, methadone clinics, drug rehabilitation centers, marijuana/hemp dispensaries, medical marijuana dispensaries, gun shops, liquor stores, etc. could potentially be eliminated from competition as these are considered non-compatible businesses.  Lessors are required to be registered and active in www.sam.gov prior to the deadline for final offer submission. 


Offers will need to include a completed Rental Proposal Worksheet, proof of registration in www.sam.gov (i.e. active CAGE code), and the existing floor plan.  Attached is a copy of the lease document, the general conditions, the construction specifications, the janitorial specifications, the rental proposal worksheet, and instructions for System for Award Management (SAM) registration.   Thoroughly review all documents and make sure that you agree to the terms presented.  The first four (4) pages of the lease have negotiable terms; however, the general conditions are standard and are not negotiable and must be accepted as written and shown on the attached file.  Review the construction specifications completely as they stipulate additional lessor responsibilities.


Leases are negotiated for a 5-year term, but they include a clause stating the Government can terminate giving reasonable days’ notice.  In order to incorporate firm term years, meaning the Government cannot get out of the lease for a specified period of time, we ask the lessor to provide a significant contribution towards the build-out costs.  Five year firm term leases are generally not considered. 


Following are the factors that will be considered when evaluating bids/offers:


  1. Location
  2. Ability to meet all construction specifications, security measures and lease requirements
  3. Complete initial and final offers must be received by defined deadline
  4. Competitive costs in the best interest of the government
  5. Qualitative ratings by client for mission

Additional information regarding this solicitation may be obtained from Casey Murphy by email at casey.m.murphy@usace.army.mil.  Proposals are due no later than 5:30 pm on 7/8/2026.
