Alan Grace

Alan Grace, as First Vice President at CBRE, Inc., serves as a key strategic advisor and procurement liaison for the Public Buildings Service’s Center for Broker Services, supporting the acquisition and management of commercial real estate assets to meet federal workspace requirements. He plays a central role in facilitating lease negotiations, property evaluations, and long-term space optimization initiatives across the federal footprint. His work directly enables the agency’s mission to secure secure, efficient, and cost-effective nonresidential facilities for federal operations, primarily through lease transactions rather than construction or renovation projects. Mr. Grace maintains consistent relationships with a select group of institutional real estate owners and developers, including TWO CON LLC, ONNI TIMES SQUARE LP, CVD MAIN LLC, BELTSVILLE GSA FDA LLC, and CC OWNER LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for large-scale property holders with established federal experience, enabling streamlined lease execution and portfolio-wide space solutions. His procurement approach emphasizes stability, compliance, and operational continuity, favoring vendors with proven track records in managing federal tenancy requirements and GSA lease standards. There is no set-aside preference in Mr. Grace’s contracting activity; all procurements are conducted as full and open competitions, reflecting a focus on market-wide competition and value-driven outcomes rather than socioeconomic targeting. This approach aligns with the agency’s broader strategy to prioritize efficiency and scale in its real estate portfolio management. His procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 531190 — Lessors of Other Real Estate Property — indicating deep specialization in commercial leasing of office, laboratory, and mixed-use facilities. He does not procure construction, fit-outs, or property management services, but rather secures leased space through master lease agreements and tenant improvement allowances, demonstrating expertise in federal real estate leasing protocols and GSA Form 1598 compliance.
