Kelly Reese

Kelly Reese serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R00 Center for Broker Services, responsible for managing the acquisition of commercial real estate assets to support federal agency workspace requirements nationwide. In this role, Reese oversees the full lifecycle of leasing and real property acquisition contracts, ensuring compliance with federal realty regulations and alignment with GSA’s mission to optimize federal footprints through strategic, cost-effective space solutions. Their work primarily involves negotiating long-term leases for nonresidential office space, conducting market analyses, and coordinating with federal stakeholders to meet operational needs while adhering to fiscal and regulatory standards. Reese maintains consistent contracting 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 are centered on lease execution for high-demand urban and suburban office properties, often involving complex real estate structures and build-to-suit arrangements. The working relationships reflect a preference for established commercial landlords with proven experience in federal leasing, emphasizing reliability, property quality, and lease term flexibility. Reese’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing value and market competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with the agency’s priority to secure optimal space solutions through broad market engagement without restrictions based on vendor certification. The primary NAICS classification underpinning all acquisitions is 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses). Reese specializes in procuring leased commercial office space, with expertise in evaluating property suitability, lease terms, operating expenses, and space efficiency metrics. Their domain expertise lies in federal real estate strategy, lease administration, and the integration of real property acquisitions into broader agency mission support frameworks.
