Lisa M. Poole

Lisa M. Poole serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing the acquisition of real estate leasing services across federal operations. In this role, she ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing agency mission needs through efficient, transparent, and legally sound contracting practices. Her portfolio primarily involves the negotiation and administration of long-term lease agreements for nonresidential and other real estate properties, supporting infrastructure requirements for federal facilities. She works closely with property owners, real estate brokers, and facility managers to secure optimal space solutions that align with operational, financial, and regulatory standards. Poole maintains professional relationships with a broad spectrum of real estate lessors and property management firms, ranging from national commercial landlords to regional property holders. Her contracting approach emphasizes competitive solicitation, clear performance metrics, and contract compliance monitoring. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages vendors with demonstrated experience in federal leasing, ensuring adherence to GSA guidelines and facility standards. Her working relationships are characterized by professionalism, responsiveness, and a focus on long-term operational stability. Poole’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing market competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While small business participation is not a primary driver of her contracting decisions, she remains fully compliant with all applicable socioeconomic statutes and ensures equal opportunity for all qualified vendors. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings) and 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property), reflecting deep expertise in commercial property leasing for federal use. She specializes in securing office spaces, administrative facilities, and ancillary real estate assets, requiring nuanced understanding of zoning, building codes, and federal occupancy standards. Her technical domain expertise centers on real estate acquisition strategy, lease structuring, and facility lifecycle management.
