Kurt D. Ramick

Kurt Ramick serves as a Realty Specialist at the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, Charleston Field Office, where he manages real property acquisition and leasing activities to support federal facility operations across the Mid-Atlantic region. His role is central to securing suitable, cost-effective spaces for federal agencies through long-term leases and real estate transactions aligned with GSA’s mission of maintaining safe, functional, and efficient work environments. Ramick specializes in negotiating commercial real estate agreements for nonresidential properties, focusing on building envelope integrity, infrastructure compatibility, and logistical efficiency to meet federal operational requirements. Ramick works closely with commercial property owners, real estate brokers, and property management firms to secure leased spaces that meet federal standards for security, accessibility, and sustainability. His procurement process emphasizes due diligence in property assessments, lease term structuring, and compliance with GSA’s Real Property Management policies. While no specific contractors are publicly identified in his portfolio, his engagements typically involve established real estate firms with experience in federal leasing and adaptive reuse of commercial assets. Ramick’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions issued without set-asides, indicating a focus on market-wide competition rather than socioeconomic preferences. This approach prioritizes value, availability, and facility suitability over targeted small business set-asides, though he remains compliant with all federal socioeconomic requirements. His procurement focus is overwhelmingly centered on NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), accounting for 72.7% of his activity, with additional reliance on NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). He specializes in procuring office, administrative, and mixed-use commercial spaces tailored to federal operational needs, demonstrating deep expertise in commercial lease structuring, space planning, and facility alignment with federal workspace standards.
