Rena T. Johnson

Rena T. Johnson serves as a key procurement lead for the PBS R00 Center for Broker Services under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where she manages the acquisition of commercial real estate assets to support federal agency workspace needs nationwide. Her role centers on securing nonresidential leasing arrangements through competitive solicitation processes, ensuring alignment with federal efficiency goals and optimal use of taxpayer resources. She specializes in long-term lease acquisitions for office and mixed-use properties, coordinating with property brokers, legal counsel, and facility planners to execute contracts that meet agency space requirements while adhering to federal real property standards. Johnson maintains consistent contracting relationships with a select group of institutional real estate owners and developers, including TWO CON LLC, ONNI TIMES SQUARE LP, CVD MAIN LLC, BELTSVILLE GSA FDA LLC, and CC OWNER LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established property holders with proven track records in federal leasing, often involving complex lease structuring, build-out allowances, and compliance with GSA’s Real Property Acquisition Directive. Her working relationships are characterized by sustained engagement, repeat contract performance, and a focus on portfolio-scale transactions rather than one-off procurements. Johnson’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a strategic emphasis on market-wide competitiveness and value-driven outcomes over socioeconomic set-asides. There is no documented reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other small business programs, reflecting a mission-driven focus on securing optimal space solutions regardless of vendor classification. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), accounting for over 90% of activity, with supplementary activity in NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). She specializes in the acquisition of leased commercial office space, including adaptive reuse and modernization-ready properties, demonstrating deep expertise in federal real estate leasing, space planning, and property portfolio optimization.
