Glynda M. Grieve

Glynda M. Grieve serves as a Contracting Officer within the PBS R4 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 real estate leases across the Southeastern United States, ensuring federal agencies receive mission-critical space through competitive, cost-effective, and legally compliant procurement processes. Her acquisitions primarily involve long-term leasing arrangements for office, administrative, and operational facilities, aligning with the agency’s strategic goal of consolidating federal footprint and enhancing operational efficiency. She exercises full contracting authority under FAR Part 17 and leverages lease-specific authorities to secure optimal space solutions that support federal mission readiness. Grieve maintains consistent working relationships with key lessors, including CROWN LEASING INC and FINCANTIERI MARINE REPAIR LLC, reflecting a focus on established real estate providers with proven capacity to deliver secure, scalable, and mission-aligned facilities. Her contracting patterns indicate a preference for direct negotiations and sole-source justifications where market conditions or property uniqueness limit competition, while still adhering to transparency and accountability standards. She collaborates closely with space planners and agency stakeholders to align lease terms with operational timelines and facility requirements. Grieve’s procurement portfolio reflects no set-aside preferences, with 100% of her awards issued under full and open competition. This underscores a strategic emphasis on maximizing value and efficiency through broad market engagement rather than socioeconomic set-asides, consistent with the agency’s priority of securing high-quality, large-scale real estate assets without artificial market constraints. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), accounting for over half of her activity, followed by 531190 (Other Real Estate Property). She specializes in procuring commercial office space, mixed-use facilities, and specialized government-support properties, demonstrating deep expertise in real estate lease structuring, rent escalation clauses, maintenance obligations, and build-out allowances under federal leasing authorities.
