Larry Wanser

Larry Wanser serves as a key procurement lead within the PBS R4 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he oversees the acquisition of nonresidential lease space to support federal agency operations across the Southeastern United States. Responsible for executing long-term real estate strategies, he manages the full lifecycle of lease procurements—from market research and requirements definition to contract award and performance monitoring—ensuring alignment with federal efficiency goals and mission readiness. His portfolio is exclusively focused on leasing transactions under NAICS 531120, emphasizing optimal space utilization, cost containment, and sustainable facility management for federal tenants. Wanser maintains consistent contracting relationships with specialized real estate lessors, most notably CROWN LEASING INC and FINCANTIERI MARINE REPAIR LLC, both of which provide mission-critical leased facilities and infrastructure solutions. His procurement approach favors established vendors with proven experience in federal leasing, demonstrating a preference for reliable, long-term partnerships over transactional engagements. These contractors are selected based on their ability to deliver turnkey lease solutions, including build-to-suit arrangements, facility modifications, and compliance with federal building standards. Wanser’s contracting activity reflects a strict non-set-aside posture, with 100% of acquisitions conducted as full and open competitions. This approach underscores a strategic focus on competitive market pricing and broad vendor participation rather than socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with the agency’s priority of achieving maximum value through open market dynamics. His technical expertise is narrowly focused on the leasing of nonresidential buildings, excluding miniwarehouses, encompassing office spaces, administrative facilities, and specialized federal use properties. He possesses deep domain knowledge in federal real estate policy, lease negotiation frameworks, and property condition assessments, ensuring all acquisitions meet GSA’s standards for operational functionality, security, and lifecycle cost efficiency.
