Phoebe M. Bordelon

Phoebe Bordelon serves as a Realty Specialist at the Farm Service Agency’s Texas State Office, where she manages the acquisition and management of real property essential to rural agricultural service delivery. Her role centers on securing leasehold interests in nonresidential buildings to establish and sustain field offices across underserved Texas counties, ensuring equitable access to USDA programs for farmers and ranchers. She oversees the full lifecycle of real estate acquisitions—from site identification and lease negotiation to compliance with federal property regulations—and coordinates with local stakeholders to align facility placement with programmatic needs. Her procurement activities are exclusively focused on real property leasing, making her a critical link between USDA’s mission and the physical infrastructure required to deliver services in remote communities. Phoebe Bordelon does not maintain a concentrated list of preferred contractors, as her acquisitions involve leasing space from private property owners rather than contracting for services or construction. She works with a broad and diverse pool of commercial landlords, property management firms, and real estate intermediaries who own or administer nonresidential buildings suitable for federal use. Her approach emphasizes flexibility and local market responsiveness, prioritizing properties that meet federal standards for accessibility, security, and operational functionality without reliance on long-term vendor partnerships. Her procurement activity reflects a 100% non-set-aside pattern, with no preference for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. This aligns with the nature of real property leasing, where eligibility is determined by physical asset availability rather than vendor certification. While small business participation is not formally incentivized, she actively considers properties owned by small business landlords, ensuring equitable access to federal leasing opportunities where market conditions permit. Her primary NAICS classification is 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—reflecting her exclusive focus on commercial lease agreements for office and service facilities. She specializes in procuring turnkey, fully operational spaces that support administrative functions, client intake, and program outreach, with technical expertise in federal real property compliance, lease administration, and space utilization standards for federal agencies.
