AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is soliciting offers for approximately 1,284 square feet of commercial retail/office space in Brownsville, Texas, specifically within a designated area bounded by Alton Gloor Blvd to the north, Ruben M Torres Blvd to the south, Paredes Line Rd to the east, and Montclair Pl to the west. The requested space must accommodate a secondary egress, provide designated parking for five government-owned vehicles available 24/7, and have additional parking within four blocks for employees and customers. The facility must also include daytime janitorial services and visible signage. The solicitation excludes locations near non-compatible businesses such as adult entertainment venues, drug treatment centers, dispensaries, gun shops, liquor stores, and similar establishments, as their proximity may disqualify proposals. Lessor entities must be registered and active in the System for Award Management (SAM) with an active CAGE code before submitting offers. Leases will be negotiated for a five-year term with a government termination clause providing reasonable notice; firm term leases are generally discouraged unless the lessor contributes significantly to build-out costs. Offer submissions must include a completed Rental Proposal Worksheet, proof of SAM registration, and current floor plans, while carefully complying with attached lease documents, general conditions, construction specifications, and janitorial requirements. The general conditions are standard and non-negotiable, whereas some lease terms are negotiable. Evaluation criteria for bids emphasize location quality, compliance with construction and security requirements, timely and complete offer submission, competitive pricing, and qualitative feedback from the mission client. The solicitation highlights strict adherence to federal, state, and local codes, comprehensive maintenance and janitorial standards, and security mandates, ensuring the facility meets operational and safety needs for military recruiting purposes. Proposals are due by April 6, 2026, and further information can be obtained via the designated U.S. Army Corps of Engineers contact.

The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Recruiting Facilities Program, is soliciting offers for approximately 1,284 square feet (useable) of commercial retail/office space within the delineated area. Space will need to include a secondary egress; have adequate parking (prefer it is sign designated) for 5 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:
- Location
- Ability to meet all construction specifications, security measures and lease requirements
- Complete initial and final offers must be received by defined deadline
- Competitive costs in the best interest of the government
- Qualitative ratings by client for mission
Additional information regarding this solicitation may be obtained from Andrea Logsdon by email at contact@example.gov. Proposals are due no later than 5:30 pm on 04/06/2026.
