Lisa Poole

Lisa Poole serves as a key procurement professional within the PBS R2 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she manages the acquisition of nonresidential real estate assets to support federal agency operations nationwide. Her responsibilities include negotiating and administering leases for office space, specialized facilities, and ancillary real estate services, ensuring compliance with federal property management standards and cost-effectiveness goals. She plays a central role in executing the agency’s mission to secure functional, secure, and efficiently utilized work environments through long-term leasing strategies that align with federal space optimization priorities. Poole maintains consistent working relationships with major real estate lessors, including TRPF 86 Chambers Street LLC and Bear Mountainside Realty Limited Liability Company, both of which specialize in commercial property leasing for federal tenants. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, large-scale property owners with portfolios of Class A and mission-critical facilities, often involving complex lease structures such as triple-net and modified gross leases. Her contracting approach emphasizes stability, long-term occupancy, and facility readiness, with a focus on properties that meet federal security and accessibility standards. Poole’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a strategic focus on market-wide competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her portfolio, her contracting decisions remain compliant with all federal acquisition regulations and emphasize value, performance, and facility suitability over socioeconomic criteria. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), accounting for over 90% of her activity, with supplementary activity in NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). She specializes in procuring leased commercial office space, data center facilities, and mission-critical real estate assets, demonstrating deep expertise in federal leasing law, space planning, and property management compliance.
