Charles Vitale

Charles V. Vitale serves as a Lease Contracting Officer within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R2 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration. In this role, he is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of nonresidential real estate leasing contracts to support federal agency workspace requirements across the United States. His portfolio encompasses the acquisition of office space, specialized facilities, and ancillary real estate services, ensuring compliance with federal property standards while optimizing cost-efficiency and space utilization. Vitale executes competitive solicitations under FAR Part 17 and leverages GSA’s leasing authorities to secure mission-critical facilities that align with agency operational needs and sustainability goals. Vitale maintains consistent contracting relationships with key real estate entities, including TRPF 86 Chambers Street LLC and Bear Mountainside Realty Limited Liability Company, which frequently provide leased commercial space under long-term agreements. His procurement approach emphasizes market research, lease negotiation, and performance-based management, fostering stable, long-term vendor partnerships grounded in transparency and accountability. These relationships reflect a preference for experienced landlords with proven track records in delivering federal-grade facilities under complex lease structures. His contracting patterns show a strong emphasis on open competition, with 88.9% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, while 11.1% are awarded through 8(a) competed processes. This balance reflects a strategic commitment to small business participation without compromising mission-critical requirements, ensuring that qualified 8(a) firms have equitable access to opportunities within his portfolio. Vitale’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), accounting for nearly 90% of his activity, with additional acquisitions under NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). He specializes in procuring turnkey leased office environments, including build-to-suit arrangements, tenant improvements, and facility management services, demonstrating deep expertise in commercial real estate leasing as a federal acquisition tool.
