Rebecca Kaplan

Rebecca Kaplan serves as a procurement professional within the PBS R2 Office of Leasing at the General Services Administration, where she supports the acquisition and management of nonresidential real estate assets critical to federal agency operations. Her role centers on executing lease agreements for office space and specialized facilities, ensuring compliance with federal real property standards and optimizing long-term space utilization. She handles complex real estate leasing transactions under the authority of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, coordinating with internal stakeholders and external property owners to secure functional, secure, and cost-effective work environments across the United States. Kaplan maintains consistent working relationships with key lessors including TRPF 86 Chambers Street LLC and Bear Mountainside Realty Limited Liability Company, both of which specialize in commercial property leasing and facility management. These partnerships reflect a preference for established real estate entities with proven track records in delivering federal-grade leased spaces, including adaptive reuse properties and Class A office buildings. Her contracting approach emphasizes stability, long-term occupancy agreements, and performance-based lease terms that align with GSA’s asset management objectives. Her procurement activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on market-wide competition rather than targeted small business programs, prioritizing property quality, location, and operational efficiency over socioeconomic criteria in lease selection. Kaplan’s expertise is concentrated in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), which accounts for 93.3% of her portfolio, with additional activity in NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). She specializes in procuring leased office environments, including build-to-suit arrangements, tenant improvement allowances, and ancillary real estate services such as parking, security, and maintenance coordination. Her domain expertise lies in federal real property leasing, space planning compliance, and lease administration under GSA’s Public Buildings Service framework.
