Jillian Caster

Jillian Caster serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R00 Center for Broker Services, where she manages the acquisition of commercial real estate assets to support federal agency workspace needs across the United States. Her responsibilities center on leasing nonresidential properties through competitive contracting processes, ensuring compliance with federal real property standards and optimizing the federal footprint for operational efficiency. She routinely handles complex lease agreements under the General Services Administration’s authority, focusing on long-term, mission-critical space solutions that align with agency occupancy requirements and sustainability goals. Caster maintains consistent contracting relationships with a select group of commercial real estate owners and developers, including TWO CON LLC, ONNI TIMES SQUARE LP, CVD MAIN LLC, BELTSVILLE GSA FDA LLC, and CC OWNER LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established property holders with portfolios of Class A and mission-ready office spaces in high-demand federal corridors. Her contracting patterns emphasize direct negotiations and firm-fixed-price leases, often involving build-to-suit or tenant improvement allowances, demonstrating a strategic approach to securing turnkey solutions without requiring extensive construction oversight. Caster’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% no set-aside preference, indicating a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This pattern suggests an operational emphasis on property availability, location suitability, and market-rate competitiveness over socioeconomic targeting, aligning with the agency’s priority of securing optimal space efficiently. Her primary procurement activity falls under NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), accounting for 95.7% of her activity, with minor engagement in NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). She specializes in procuring leased office space, including ground-floor retail and mixed-use properties, with deep expertise in federal lease compliance, space planning, and real estate asset lifecycle management.
