Emily G Brashears

Emily G. Brashears serves as a Realty Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s R3 Acquisition Management Division South, where she plays a pivotal role in securing real estate assets and related services to support federal facility operations across the Mid-Atlantic region. Her responsibilities include managing the acquisition of nonresidential leasing arrangements, property management services, and long-term real property solutions aligned with GSA’s mission to deliver safe, efficient, and sustainable work environments for federal agencies. Brashears specializes in end-to-end procurement of real property interests, from needs assessment and market research to contract execution and performance monitoring, ensuring compliance with federal realty regulations and strategic facility planning objectives. Brashears collaborates primarily with commercial real estate landlords, property management firms, and real estate brokers experienced in federal leasing requirements. Her contractor relationships are built on consistent engagement with firms possessing deep expertise in nonresidential property leasing, space planning, and facility compliance under GSA standards. She maintains a professional, transparent contracting process focused on value-driven outcomes, leveraging market intelligence to identify qualified lessors capable of meeting federal operational and security standards. Brashears’ procurement activity is entirely focused on open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-aside preferences for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. This reflects a strategic alignment with the agency’s emphasis on broad market access and competitive pricing in the real property leasing sector, prioritizing capability and compliance over socioeconomic targeting. Her primary procurement focus lies within NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property) and 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), indicating a specialization in leasing office spaces, government-leased facilities, and ancillary real estate assets. She routinely procures long-term lease agreements for federal workspace, including build-out allowances, utility coordination, and facility maintenance services, demonstrating deep expertise in federal realty law, lease administration, and property lifecycle management.
