Nateara Gaston

Nateara Gaston serves as a procurement professional within the PBS R2 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where they manage the acquisition of nonresidential real estate assets to support federal agency operations nationwide. Responsible for executing lease agreements and real estate services, Gaston plays a critical role in securing functional, secure, and cost-effective office spaces and ancillary facilities that align with federal workspace standards. Their work directly supports the agency’s mission to optimize federal property utilization through strategic leasing, space planning, and long-term real estate portfolio management. Gaston maintains consistent contracting relationships with key real estate landlords and property managers, notably TRPF 86 Chambers Street LLC and Bear Mountainside Realty Limited Liability Company. These partnerships reflect a focus on long-term, stable lease arrangements for commercial office spaces and related facility services. The working relationships are characterized by recurring contract actions and a preference for established landlords with proven track records in delivering federal-compliant, turnkey leased environments. Gaston’s procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This pattern indicates a focus on market-driven selection based on facility suitability, location, and operational efficiency rather than socioeconomic criteria, aligning with the agency’s priority for mission-critical space acquisition over targeted small business set-asides. The primary NAICS focus is 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—with 95% of acquisitions targeting commercial office space leases. The remaining 5% falls under 812930 for parking facility services. This specialization demonstrates deep expertise in commercial real estate leasing, facility management contracts, and the negotiation of complex real property agreements under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, ensuring federal tenants receive compliant, secure, and sustainably managed workspaces.
