Davina Blake

Davina Blake serves as a Lease Contracting Specialist within the Pbs R10 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service. In this role, she is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of nonresidential lease acquisitions to support federal agency operations across the Pacific Northwest. Her work ensures the procurement of secure, efficient, and cost-effective office space that aligns with federal real estate consolidation goals and sustainability standards. Davina specializes in negotiating and administering long-term lease agreements under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, with a focus on tenant improvements, rent escalations, and compliance with GSA’s Lease Management Policy. Davina collaborates primarily with commercial real estate developers, property management firms, and institutional landlords who own and operate Class A and B office buildings. Her contractor relationships are characterized by long-term, performance-based partnerships centered on facility readiness, space optimization, and adaptive reuse of existing structures. She engages with vendors who demonstrate strong track records in federal leasing compliance, environmental assessments, and security integration for government tenants. Davina’s contracting activity is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of her acquisitions awarded through full and open competition. While she does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her approach emphasizes value-driven outcomes, market competitiveness, and adherence to federal leasing best practices over socioeconomic targeting. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—where she specializes in acquiring leased office space for federal agencies. She has deep expertise in evaluating building suitability for federal occupancy, assessing leasehold improvements, and ensuring compliance with GSA’s Design Standards and accessibility requirements under the ADA. Davina’s technical domain centers on real estate transaction structuring, lease administration, and facility condition assessments to meet mission-critical workspace needs.
