Mary W Nix

Mary W. Nix serves as a Buyer’s Broker and Contracting Officer within the PBS R4 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service. In this role, she is responsible for executing strategic real estate leasing acquisitions to support federal agency operations across the Southeastern United States. She manages the full lifecycle of nonresidential lease contracts, from market analysis and requirement development to award and performance oversight, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and alignment with the agency’s mission of operational efficiency and cost-effective space solutions. Her portfolio centers exclusively on long-term lease agreements for office, administrative, and mission-critical facilities. Nix maintains consistent procurement relationships with key lessors including CROWN LEASING INC and FINCANTIERI MARINE REPAIR LLC, both of which provide specialized nonresidential space and facility management services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, experienced real estate lessors with proven track records in delivering federal-grade leased space. She collaborates closely with these vendors to negotiate terms that meet federal occupancy standards, sustainability goals, and security requirements, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in performance accountability and regulatory compliance. Nix’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of her contracts awarded under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic alignment with the agency’s mission to secure the most cost-effective and operationally suitable space without socioeconomic restrictions, prioritizing value, location, and facility readiness over set-aside preferences. While small business participation is not mandated in her portfolio, all solicitations adhere to FAR guidelines and ensure fair opportunity for all qualified offerors. Her technical expertise is narrowly focused on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—where she specializes in procuring fully equipped, turnkey office and administrative spaces. She evaluates building systems, accessibility compliance, security infrastructure, and utility capacity to ensure leased properties meet federal operational standards, demonstrating deep domain knowledge in federal real estate leasing and facility acquisition.
