Scott M Elgart

Scott M. Elgart serves as a Realty Specialist with the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, San Diego Field Office (47PK09), where he is responsible for managing the acquisition and leasing of nonresidential real estate to support federal agency operations across the region. His role centers on securing mission-critical office space and related facilities through competitive leasing instruments, ensuring compliance with federal real property standards and optimizing space utilization for cost-effective, secure, and efficient government operations. Elgart primarily handles real property acquisitions under GSA’s real estate authority, coordinating with property owners, brokers, and legal counsel to execute leases, easements, and other real estate instruments aligned with federal requirements. Elgart maintains professional relationships with commercial real estate landlords, property management firms, and leasing agents who specialize in office and mixed-use properties. He engages with vendors through full and open competition, typically utilizing GSA’s leasing authorities and standardized real estate contract templates. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, his work consistently involves vetted real estate professionals with experience in federal compliance, property due diligence, and lease administration. His contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 95.5% of actions issued without set-aside restrictions. Only 4.5% of awards are designated for 8(a) competed contracts, indicating a primary focus on market-driven solutions rather than socioeconomic set-asides. This pattern underscores a mission-driven approach prioritizing facility suitability and operational readiness over socioeconomic preferences. Elgart’s procurement activity is overwhelmingly concentrated in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), accounting for over 83% of his acquisitions, with secondary activity in other real estate-related categories such as parking facilities and general rental centers. His technical expertise lies in commercial office leasing, property condition assessments, and federal real estate compliance, making him a key operator in securing mission-aligned physical infrastructure for federal tenants.
