Laura Strohbach

Laura Strohbach serves as a Senior Associate within the PBS R00 Center for Broker Services under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she plays a pivotal role in securing commercial real estate assets to support federal agency operations nationwide. Her responsibilities include managing lease acquisitions for nonresidential office space and other mission-critical facilities, ensuring alignment with federal footprint optimization goals and cost-efficiency standards. She leads the end-to-end procurement process for complex real estate transactions, from market analysis and solicitation development to contract award and performance monitoring, working closely with property owners, brokers, and legal counsel to secure optimal lease terms that meet agency space requirements. Strohbach maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced real estate entities, 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 commercial landlords and property management firms with proven experience in federal leasing environments. Her procurement approach emphasizes stability, long-term tenancy, and compliance with federal real estate standards, fostering collaborative, transactional relationships grounded in transparency and regulatory adherence. Her contracting activity shows no reliance on socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on market-driven outcomes and the unique nature of commercial real estate procurement, where qualifying small business participation is often constrained by the scale and structure of available properties. Strohbach’s procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings) at 57.1% and NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property) at 42.9%, underscoring her expertise in leasing office space, medical facilities, and mixed-use commercial properties. She specializes in securing turnkey, fully serviced workspaces that meet GSA’s stringent security, accessibility, and sustainability standards, making her a key contributor to the federal government’s real estate portfolio modernization efforts.
