Matthew Helmering

Matthew Helmering serves as a Contracting Officer for the PBS R6 Office of Leasing within the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he is responsible for securing nonresidential real estate through long-term lease agreements to support federal agency operations nationwide. His role centers on executing strategic real estate acquisitions that align with mission-critical space requirements, ensuring cost-effective, efficient, and compliant leasing solutions for office and administrative facilities. Helmering manages the full lifecycle of lease procurements—from market research and requirement development to contract award and administration—leveraging federal real property authorities under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act. He maintains a primary working relationship with BELLA TERRA LLC, a key lessor of commercial real estate assets, reflecting a consistent pattern of engagement with experienced property owners and real estate management firms capable of delivering turnkey leased space solutions. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, compliance, and performance-based outcomes, fostering stable, long-term vendor partnerships grounded in clear deliverables and facility standards. Helmering’s procurement portfolio reflects no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing value and operational readiness through broad market access rather than socioeconomic set-asides, while still ensuring competitive fairness and transparency in all solicitations. His technical expertise is concentrated in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), which accounts for 90% of his activity, with supplementary activity in NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). He specializes in procuring leased office space, administrative facilities, and related real estate services—ensuring federal agencies receive secure, functional, and sustainably managed environments tailored to operational needs.
