Jeri Kullas

Jeri Kullas serves as a Realty Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R8 Acquisition Management Division under the General Services Administration, where she plays a pivotal role in managing real property acquisition and leasing activities for federal facilities nationwide. Her responsibilities encompass the end-to-end procurement of land and building leases for federal operations, including land ports of entry and mission-critical infrastructure. Kullas specializes in negotiating and executing real estate contracts under the authority of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, ensuring compliance with federal realty standards and aligning leasing decisions with agency space utilization goals and sustainability mandates. Kullas maintains consistent working relationships with a focused group of contractors specializing in property management, site development, and facility maintenance services. Key partners include LEA MARIE LLC, SECURITYHUNTER, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, and HANDYMAN NATION INC., all of which provide critical support in property conditioning, security integration, and infrastructure readiness. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, performance-based outcomes, and long-term vendor collaboration, often favoring contractors with demonstrated experience in federal realty compliance and rapid-response facility turnaround. Kullas’s contracting portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside strategy, with no reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. This reflects a mission-driven focus on securing the most operationally suitable properties and services without socioeconomic constraints, prioritizing facility readiness, geographic suitability, and compliance with federal real property standards over socioeconomic preferences. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531110 (Lessors of Residential Buildings and Dwellings) and NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), indicating a specialization in leasing both residential-style housing for federal personnel and nonresidential properties for operational use. Kullas’s expertise centers on lease administration, property condition assessments, and alignment of real estate assets with federal agency mission requirements, ensuring that leased spaces meet security, accessibility, and operational efficiency benchmarks.
