Diana K. George

Diana K. George serves as Realty Specialist Team Leader within the Pbs R5 Office of Leasing at the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she leads a team responsible for securing and managing federal leasehold interests in nonresidential commercial real estate. Her role encompasses the full lifecycle of lease acquisition—from market research and site evaluation to lease negotiation and contract administration—ensuring federal agencies receive secure, cost-effective, and mission-aligned workspace solutions across the region. She specializes in nonresidential office leasing transactions, coordinating with federal stakeholders to align space requirements with operational needs while adhering to federal real property regulations and GSA leasing policies. Her primary contractor relationship is with the Metropolitan Airports Commission of Minneapolis, a key public-sector lessor of federal office facilities. Diana works closely with this entity to negotiate long-term lease agreements that meet federal standards for security, accessibility, and sustainability. Her procurement pattern reflects a consistent reliance on a single, high-capacity public landlord with established infrastructure, indicating a strategic preference for institutional partners with proven capacity to deliver federal-grade space under standardized terms. Diana’s portfolio reflects no set-aside preferences, with 100% of her acquisitions awarded under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven focus on securing optimal space solutions rather than socioeconomic targeting, aligning with GSA’s mandate to prioritize value, efficiency, and facility suitability over socioeconomic criteria in real estate leasing. Her technical expertise is concentrated exclusively in NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—where she procures turnkey office space, including build-outs, utilities, and maintenance services bundled within lease agreements. She possesses deep domain knowledge in commercial real estate leasing, federal facility standards, and lease compliance under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, making her a specialist in nonresidential space acquisition for federal occupancy.
