Matthew R. Glass

Matthew R. Glass serves as a Realty Specialist within the PBS R3 Office of Leasing under the General Services Administration, where he plays a pivotal role in securing nonresidential real estate assets to support federal agency operations. His responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of leasing transactions—from market analysis and site selection to lease negotiation and portfolio optimization—ensuring federal workspaces align with mission requirements, sustainability goals, and cost-efficiency standards. He primarily handles real property leases under the 531190 NAICS category, focusing on long-term, mission-critical office space acquisitions across diverse geographic markets. Mr. Glass maintains established relationships with a select group of real estate developers and property holding entities, including 801 State Street Holdings, LLC, Boyd Greensboro II GSA, LLC, and Allied Defense Industries, LLC. These partnerships are centered on leasehold interests in commercial office buildings, with a preference for institutional landlords experienced in GSA compliance, federal lease standards, and adaptive reuse of existing structures. His contracting approach emphasizes stability, transparency, and adherence to federal real property regulations, fostering enduring vendor relationships built on consistent performance and regulatory alignment. Mr. Glass’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside contracting pattern, with no use of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic set-asides. This reflects the nature of the real estate leasing market, where large-scale property ownership and long-term leasehold interests are typically held by institutional investors or private real estate entities rather than small business concerns. His approach prioritizes operational efficiency and portfolio scale over socioeconomic set-asides, consistent with the structural realities of the commercial real estate sector. His technical expertise lies exclusively in NAICS 531190—Lessors of Other Real Estate Property—where he specializes in procuring leased office environments, including build-to-suit arrangements, tenant improvements, and space consolidation initiatives. He brings deep knowledge of federal real property policy, GSA lease guidelines, and the nuances of commercial real estate transactions, ensuring federal agencies receive secure, functional, and cost-effective workspaces.
