David Barrueta

David Barrueta serves as Vice President at the PBS R00 Center for Broker Services within the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he oversees the strategic acquisition and management of commercial real estate assets to support federal agency operations nationwide. In this leadership capacity, he directs the procurement of nonresidential lease agreements, ensuring alignment with federal workspace optimization goals, cost-efficiency standards, and sustainability mandates. His portfolio primarily involves long-term real estate leasing transactions for office and mixed-use facilities, requiring complex negotiation, space planning, and compliance with federal property management regulations under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act. Barrueta maintains enduring relationships with a select group of institutional real estate owners and developers, 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 with proven experience in federal leasing, robust property management infrastructure, and the ability to deliver turnkey workspace solutions that meet GSA’s stringent security, accessibility, and operational requirements. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, scalability, and long-term asset performance over transactional vendor engagements. His procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on market-wide competition to achieve optimal value, rather than targeted small business set-asides, despite the broader GSA mandate to promote socioeconomic participation. Barrueta’s primary procurement focus is on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—which accounts for 97.1% of his activity—underscoring his deep expertise in commercial office leasing. He specializes in securing Class A and B office spaces, often in urban and suburban corridors, with ancillary support for NAICS 531190 for other nonresidential property types. His domain expertise lies in lease structuring, space utilization analysis, and compliance with GSA’s Real Estate Acquisition Policy, making him a key architect of federal workspace strategy.
