Shayne Doherty

Shayne Doherty serves as a Leasing Specialist within the PBS R1 Office of Leasing at the General Services Administration, where they play a critical role in securing and managing nonresidential real estate leases to support federal agency operations nationwide. Responsible for the end-to-end acquisition lifecycle of leased space, Doherty evaluates property requirements, negotiates lease terms, and ensures compliance with federal real property regulations to deliver secure, efficient, and fiscally responsible facilities. Their work directly advances the agency’s mission to optimize space utilization, reduce footprint costs, and promote sustainable building practices across the federal real estate portfolio. Doherty primarily handles complex real property leasing transactions involving office, institutional, and mixed-use facilities. Doherty collaborates with a broad network of commercial real estate owners, property managers, and leasing agents who specialize in federal-grade tenant spaces. While no single contractor dominates their portfolio, Doherty consistently engages with experienced real estate firms capable of delivering turnkey lease solutions that meet GSA’s stringent security, accessibility, and sustainability standards. Their working relationships are characterized by a focus on transparency, long-term performance, and adherence to federal leasing guidelines under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act. Doherty’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of acquisitions issued without set-aside designations. This reflects a strategic alignment with GSA’s broader mandate to prioritize cost-effectiveness and market-wide competition over socioeconomic set-asides, while still ensuring equitable access for all qualified vendors. Their procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), which accounts for 93.3% of their activity, with additional engagement in NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). Doherty specializes in procuring leased office and institutional space, with technical expertise in building compliance, lease administration, and federal real property standards under 41 CFR Part 102-80. Their domain knowledge ensures that leased facilities meet federal operational, security, and environmental benchmarks.
