Edith E. Lund

Edith E. Lund serves as a Realty Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R11 Special Programs Division White House Branch under the General Services Administration. In this role, she manages the acquisition and leasing of nonresidential real property to support mission-critical federal operations in the National Capital Region. Her responsibilities include evaluating facility requirements, conducting market analyses, negotiating leases, and ensuring compliance with federal realty regulations under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act. She plays a pivotal role in securing high-security, high-visibility spaces essential to White House operations, aligning real estate acquisitions with the agency’s strategic priorities of facility modernization, operational continuity, and energy efficiency. Lund maintains professional relationships with commercial property owners, real estate brokers, and institutional lessors who specialize in Class A office and government-qualified spaces. Her contracting approach emphasizes due diligence in property assessments, lease term structuring, and compliance with GSA’s Real Property Management standards. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with firms possessing expertise in federal tenant fit-outs, security-compliant building modifications, and long-term lease administration. Lund’s procurement activity reflects a 100% non-set-aside profile, indicating a preference for full and open competition. This pattern underscores the unique operational sensitivity and urgency of the facilities under her purview, where specialized space requirements and security protocols often preclude socioeconomic set-asides. Her approach prioritizes capability, compliance, and continuity over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with the nature of White House support infrastructure. Her primary focus is on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—reflecting deep expertise in commercial lease acquisition, property condition assessments, and tenant improvement coordination. She procures turnkey leased spaces with integrated security, HVAC, and IT infrastructure, ensuring alignment with federal building codes and sustainability standards. Her domain expertise lies in securing mission-critical real estate that meets stringent operational, logistical, and security demands of high-profile federal entities.
