Aliya Coher

Aliya Coher serves as a key procurement professional within the PBS R00 Center for Broker Services under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she manages the acquisition and leasing of nonresidential real estate to support federal agency workspace requirements. Her role centers on executing full-cycle contracting for commercial office space and related facilities, ensuring alignment with federal real property strategies that prioritize efficiency, security, and cost-effectiveness. She routinely handles complex lease transactions, space optimization initiatives, and long-term real estate portfolio management, working closely with property owners, brokers, and legal counsel to secure mission-critical facilities nationwide. Coher maintains consistent contracting relationships with a select group of institutional real estate entities, 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 established commercial landlords and property management firms with proven experience in federal leasing, particularly those holding large-scale urban and suburban office portfolios. Her contracting approach emphasizes stability, compliance with GSA lease standards, and long-term operational continuity over transactional vendor relationships. There is no use of socioeconomic set-asides in her procurement activity; all awards are conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic alignment with the agency’s mandate to secure optimal space at market rates without socioeconomic restrictions, prioritizing value and facility suitability over categorical preferences. Her procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—indicating deep specialization in commercial real estate leasing. She procures only leased space for federal occupancy, with no procurement of construction, renovation, or tenant improvement services. Her expertise lies in negotiating lease terms, managing space utilization metrics, and ensuring compliance with federal real property regulations governing tenant fit-out, security, and accessibility standards.
