Lawrence C. Becker

Larry Becker serves as a Lease Contracting Officer within the Public Buildings Service’s R9 Leasing Division under the General Services Administration, where he is responsible for acquiring and managing real estate leases to support federal agency operations across Region 9. He oversees the full lifecycle of lease acquisitions—from market research and requirement development to contract award and administration—ensuring compliance with federal property management standards and cost-effectiveness goals. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to consolidate federal footprints, optimize space utilization, and provide secure, functional work environments through strategic leasing solutions. Becker maintains consistent contracting relationships with key real estate entities including EYP REALTY, LLC, THE HUNT TRUST BYPASS TRUST, SAN DIEGO COUNTY REGIONAL AIRPORT AUTHORITY, and DLR HOLDINGS 4, LLC. These partnerships primarily involve long-term commercial space leases, parking facility agreements, and specialized property arrangements tailored to federal operational needs. His procurement approach emphasizes stability, performance-based lease terms, and proactive portfolio management, fostering collaborative, long-standing vendor relationships grounded in transparency and regulatory compliance. Becker’s contracting portfolio reflects a strict focus on full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued without set-aside preferences for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. This reflects a strategic alignment with the agency’s priority to secure optimal space solutions through broad market engagement rather than targeted socioeconomic set-asides, while still adhering to all applicable small business outreach and reporting requirements. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings) and 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property), encompassing office space, mixed-use properties, and ancillary facilities. He also manages leases under NAICS 812930 (Parking Lots and Garages) and NAICS 923120 (Administration of Public Health Programs), demonstrating expertise in complex real estate portfolios that support diverse federal missions—from administrative offices to specialized health service facilities.
