Lisa Foster

Lisa Foster serves as a Leasing Specialist within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R00 Acquisition Support Division at the General Services Administration, where she plays a critical role in securing nonresidential real estate assets to support federal agency operations. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of building lease acquisitions—from needs assessment and market analysis to contract execution and performance monitoring—ensuring alignment with federal real property standards and sustainability goals. She specializes in procuring long-term lease agreements for office, laboratory, and mixed-use facilities, working closely with federal stakeholders to align space requirements with mission-critical operational needs while adhering to GSA’s strategic priorities in energy resilience and facility modernization. Lisa Foster maintains professional relationships with a broad range of commercial property owners, real estate developers, and leasing agents who hold nonresidential commercial properties suitable for federal occupancy. Her contracting approach emphasizes transparency, competitive solicitation, and compliance with federal leasing regulations under 40 U.S.C. Chapter 33. She engages with both national real estate firms and local property managers, fostering collaborative partnerships grounded in regulatory adherence and performance accountability. Lisa’s procurement activities are exclusively focused on non-set-aside acquisitions, with 100% of her lease awards issued under full and open competition. She does not utilize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, reflecting the nature of real property leasing as a service inherently tied to physical asset availability rather than vendor certification. Her primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—where she sources fully leased, turnkey facilities that meet federal security, accessibility, and environmental standards. She specializes in procuring Class A office spaces, federal tenant spaces, and mission-critical facilities with energy-efficient infrastructure, demonstrating deep expertise in federal real property law, lease negotiation, and facility lifecycle management.
