Bob Garrett

Bob Garrett serves as a Broker at the PBS R00 Center for Broker Services within the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he facilitates the acquisition and leasing of commercial nonresidential real estate to support federal agency workspace needs. In this role, he acts as a critical liaison between federal stakeholders and property owners, managing the end-to-end procurement lifecycle for lease agreements, including site evaluation, negotiation, due diligence, and contract execution. His work directly advances the agency’s mission to optimize the federal real estate footprint by securing efficient, secure, and cost-effective office spaces across the United States. Garrett specializes in nonresidential lease acquisitions, ensuring compliance with federal real property regulations and alignment with strategic footprint consolidation goals. Garrett maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of commercial real estate entities, including TWO CON LLC, ONNI TIMES SQUARE LP, CVD MAIN LLC, BELTSVILLE GSA FDA LLC, and CC OWNER LLC. These partnerships are primarily transactional and focused on long-term lease arrangements for Class A and B office properties in high-demand federal corridors. His procurement approach emphasizes market-driven negotiations, performance-based lease terms, and strict adherence to GSA leasing protocols, fostering reliable vendor engagement without reliance on competitive bidding frameworks typically used in other acquisition types. Garrett’s procurement activity reflects a 100% no set-aside preference, indicating a focus on full and open competition for real estate leasing opportunities. There is no evidence of targeted socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB preferences in his award patterns, suggesting his portfolio prioritizes market efficiency and property suitability over socioeconomic criteria. His primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—demonstrating deep expertise in commercial real estate leasing. He procures leased office spaces, mixed-use properties, and ancillary facilities tailored to federal operational requirements, with an emphasis on location, accessibility, security compliance, and infrastructure readiness.
