Jessica Schippits - Broker Contractor, Carpenter/Robbins Commercial Real Estate, Inc.

Jessica Schippits serves as a Broker Contractor supporting the Public Buildings Service’s R00 Center for Broker Services, where she facilitates the acquisition and leasing of commercial nonresidential real estate to meet federal workspace requirements. In this role, she acts as a key liaison between federal stakeholders and private property owners, managing end-to-end leasing transactions under GSA’s real estate portfolio strategy. Her work ensures the agency secures secure, efficient, and cost-effective office space across the United States, aligning with the broader mission of optimizing federal footprints through strategic real estate solutions. She primarily handles lease acquisitions for office and mixed-use commercial properties, applying standardized GSA leasing protocols and market analysis to meet agency occupancy needs. Schippits maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of institutional property owners and real estate entities, including TWO CON LLC, ONNI TIMES SQUARE LP, CVD MAIN LLC, BELTSVILLE GSA FDA LLC, and CC OWNER LLC. These partnerships are primarily transactional and centered on long-term lease negotiations for federally occupied buildings. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established landlords with proven experience in federal compliance, property management, and GSA lease administration, indicating a focus on reliability and regulatory alignment over speculative or emerging market participants. Her procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of lease actions awarded under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven prioritization of market efficiency and property suitability over socioeconomic targeting, consistent with the nature of commercial real estate leasing where ownership structures often do not align with traditional small business categories. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—where she specializes in securing leased office spaces, corporate campuses, and mixed-use facilities for federal agencies. Her expertise lies in evaluating property compliance with GSA standards for security, accessibility, and sustainability, ensuring leased assets meet federal operational and regulatory requirements without capital investment.
