Michael Hajjar

Michael Hajjar serves as a Realty Specialist responsible for managing real property acquisitions and lease transactions on behalf of a federal agency. In this role, he ensures compliance with federal real estate regulations, conducts market analyses, and negotiates long-term leases and property management agreements to support agency mission requirements. His procurement activities center on securing commercial real estate space, primarily nonresidential office facilities, aligning with the agency’s strategic space utilization and cost-efficiency goals. Hajjar works closely with internal stakeholders to define facility needs and translates those into legally sound, competitively awarded real estate contracts. His contractor relationships are primarily with commercial real estate lessors, property management firms, and real estate brokers specializing in commercial leasing. He engages with a broad network of private sector vendors who provide space solutions, including build-to-suit arrangements, tenant improvement allowances, and facility optimization services. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, Hajjar consistently evaluates and selects vendors based on property quality, location suitability, and lease terms that meet federal standards. Hajjar’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 87.5% of actions awarded without set-aside designation. However, he maintains a meaningful commitment to small business participation, with 12.5% of awards directed toward 8(a) certified firms, demonstrating a balanced approach that prioritizes both competition and socioeconomic objectives under the Small Business Act. His procurement focus is overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 531120, which covers the lessors of nonresidential buildings, indicating a specialization in leasing office and commercial space. A minor portion of activity falls under NAICS 531210 and 531190, reflecting occasional engagements with real estate agents and lessors of other property types. His expertise lies in navigating complex real property regulations, evaluating space requirements against federal standards, and structuring leases that ensure long-term operational readiness.
