Lisa Battison

Lisa Battison serves as a key procurement professional within the Pbs R8 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she is responsible for managing the acquisition of nonresidential real estate to support federal agency operations nationwide. Her role centers on executing full lifecycle lease transactions—from site selection and lease negotiation to contract administration and performance monitoring—ensuring all spaces meet federal standards for security, accessibility, and operational efficiency. She works closely with federal stakeholders to align leasing requirements with agency missions, prioritizing long-term sustainability and optimal space utilization across diverse geographic markets. While specific contractor relationships are not publicly delineated, Battison engages with a broad spectrum of commercial real estate firms, property managers, and leasing agents who specialize in federal-grade office and operational space. Her procurement approach emphasizes competitive solicitation under open market conditions, fostering relationships with experienced landlords and real estate service providers capable of delivering turnkey solutions compliant with GSA’s stringent lease guidelines. Battison’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open, unrestricted competition, with 100% of her acquisitions issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing market competition and value rather than socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with the agency’s mandate to secure the most cost-effective and functionally suitable properties without artificial constraints. Her procurement activities are concentrated in commercial real estate leasing and facility management services, with primary NAICS classifications likely encompassing 531110 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings) and 531312 (Office Rental). She specializes in procuring flexible, secure, and scalable workspace solutions tailored to the evolving needs of federal agencies, demonstrating deep expertise in lease structure, build-out allowances, and federal compliance under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act.
