Patricia K. Singleton

Patricia K. Singleton serves as a Realty Specialist within the PBS R4 Office of Leasing at the General Services Administration, where she plays a pivotal role in securing nonresidential real estate assets to support federal operations across the Southeastern United States. Responsible for end-to-end lease acquisition and portfolio management, she executes strategic real property transactions aligned with federal mission requirements, ensuring cost-effective, long-term space solutions that promote operational efficiency and consolidation. Her work primarily involves negotiating and administering commercial leases for office, laboratory, and institutional facilities, leveraging market analysis and lease compliance frameworks to meet agency occupancy needs while adhering to federal real property standards. Singleton maintains consistent procurement relationships with key real estate lessors, including CROWN LEASING INC and FINCANTIERI MARINE REPAIR LLC, reflecting a focus on experienced commercial property owners and specialized facility operators. Her contracting approach emphasizes direct lease negotiations with established landlords possessing proven track records in federal compliance, property maintenance, and infrastructure readiness. These partnerships are typically structured as firm-fixed-price leases with performance-based terms, ensuring accountability and alignment with GSA’s real estate objectives. Singleton’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides, indicating a focus on market-wide competition rather than socioeconomic targeting. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her contracting decisions are guided by value, location, and facility suitability rather than socioeconomic criteria. Her primary acquisition focus lies in NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property) and 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), underscoring her expertise in procuring leased space for federal agencies beyond warehouse or storage uses. She specializes in acquiring fully equipped, mission-ready facilities with infrastructure capable of supporting administrative, technical, and operational federal functions, demonstrating deep familiarity with commercial real estate standards and federal leasing regulations.
