John Worthen

John Worthen serves as a key procurement professional within the Pbs R00 Center for Broker Services under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he manages the acquisition and leasing of nonresidential real estate to support federal agency workspace needs across the United States. His role centers on executing long-term lease agreements for commercial office space and related facilities, ensuring compliance with federal real property standards and optimizing the federal footprint through strategic, cost-effective space solutions. He handles complex real estate transactions under the authority of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, coordinating with property owners, brokers, and legal counsel to secure mission-critical facilities. Worthen maintains consistent relationships with a select group of institutional 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 large-scale commercial property holders with established portfolios of Class A and B office buildings in high-demand federal corridors. His contracting patterns emphasize long-term, performance-based leases with clear operational and maintenance obligations, fostering stable, predictable tenancy arrangements that align with federal occupancy requirements. Worthen’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% no set-aside orientation, with no utilization of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. His approach prioritizes market competitiveness and facility suitability over socioeconomic preferences, focusing on the highest-value, most strategically located properties regardless of vendor size or certification status. His primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 531120 — Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses). He specializes in acquiring leased commercial office space, including build-to-suit arrangements, tenant improvements, and space reconfigurations, demonstrating deep expertise in real estate leasing law, federal property management, and facility lifecycle planning.
