Heather Driskell

Heather R. Driskell serves as a key procurement professional within the Pbs R4 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she is responsible for managing nonresidential real estate leasing acquisitions across the Southeastern United States. Her role centers on executing strategic, long-term lease agreements that align federal agency mission requirements with optimal space solutions, ensuring cost-effective, efficient, and mission-ready facilities. She specializes in full-cycle contracting for commercial office, industrial, and mixed-use properties, overseeing solicitation, evaluation, negotiation, and lease administration in compliance with FAR and GSA leasing policies. Driskell maintains consistent contracting relationships with established real estate lessors, most notably CROWN LEASING INC and FINCANTIERI MARINE REPAIR LLC, reflecting a preference for experienced, geographically aligned vendors with proven capacity in federal leasing environments. Her working patterns emphasize stable, long-term partnerships with lessors who offer turnkey facility solutions, including build-to-suit and leasehold improvement options, often involving complex space planning and infrastructure integration tailored to federal operational needs. Her procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing value and operational suitability over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing market-driven competition to secure the most efficient lease arrangements for federal tenants. Driskell’s domain expertise is concentrated exclusively in NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—where she procures leased space for federal agencies requiring secure, scalable, and compliant facilities. Her technical focus includes evaluating building systems, lease terms, maintenance obligations, and compliance with federal accessibility and security standards, making her a specialist in real estate asset acquisition rather than construction or tenant improvement contracting.
