Bobby Fanning

Bobby Fanning serves as a key procurement professional within the Pbs R3 Office of Leasing under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, responsible for managing the acquisition of nonresidential real estate assets to support federal agency operations. His work centers on securing long-term lease agreements for office space and related real estate services, ensuring federal work environments are secure, efficient, and aligned with mission requirements. He handles complex real property transactions under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, coordinating with internal stakeholders and external lessors to execute strategic footprint optimization initiatives through competitive leasing processes. Fanning maintains consistent contracting relationships with a select group of commercial real estate entities, including 801 State Street Holdings, LLC, Boyd Greensboro II GSA, LLC, and Allied Defense Industries, LLC, all of which specialize in commercial property leasing and facility management. These partnerships are primarily structured as firm-fixed-price leases with performance-based terms, emphasizing stability, compliance, and operational continuity. His procurement approach favors established lessors with proven track records in federal leasing, prioritizing reliability and asset readiness over transactional vendor diversity. Fanning’s contracting portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside orientation, with no use of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic preferences. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing competition among qualified commercial real estate providers rather than targeted socioeconomic outreach, aligning with the agency’s emphasis on efficiency and broad market access in real property acquisition. His primary procurement activity falls under NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—reflecting deep expertise in commercial lease negotiation, space planning, and real estate asset management. He specializes in procuring turnkey office environments, including build-outs, utilities, and maintenance services, ensuring leased spaces meet federal security, accessibility, and sustainability standards without requiring capital investment by the government.
