Amy Marie Waugh

Amy Marie Waugh serves as a Leasing Contracting Specialist, responsible for managing the acquisition of real estate leasing services to support federal operational needs. In this role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while facilitating efficient, cost-effective space solutions through competitive contracting processes. Her work directly supports agency mission readiness by securing suitable nonresidential and other real estate properties under long-term lease agreements. She typically handles full lifecycle acquisitions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and performance monitoring—focusing on fixed-price and indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) leasing instruments. Waugh engages with a broad spectrum of real estate lessors and property management firms, primarily those specializing in commercial and institutional space leasing. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently works with experienced lessors possessing proven track records in federal compliance, property maintenance, and lease administration. Her contracting approach emphasizes transparency, competition, and performance-based outcomes, fostering collaborative relationships with vendors who demonstrate reliability and adherence to federal standards. Her procurement activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her awards issued under the “No Set-Aside” category. This indicates a deliberate focus on maximizing competition among all eligible firms, regardless of socioeconomic designation, rather than reserving opportunities for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her portfolio, her process remains fully compliant with all applicable socioeconomic statutes. Waugh’s expertise centers on NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings) and 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property), reflecting a deep specialization in procuring office space, data center facilities, and other non-residential real estate assets. She possesses technical proficiency in evaluating lease terms, space utilization metrics, and facility compliance requirements, ensuring leased properties meet federal operational, security, and accessibility standards. Her domain expertise lies at the intersection of real estate strategy and federal acquisition policy.
