Steven Vanderhye

Steven Vanderhye serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R00 Center for Broker Services, responsible for managing the acquisition of commercial real estate assets to support federal agency workspace requirements. His role centers on executing lease agreements for nonresidential office space across the United States, ensuring alignment with GSA’s mission to optimize federal footprints through strategic, cost-effective property solutions. He handles complex real property transactions under the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act, coordinating with leasing brokers, property owners, and legal counsel to secure long-term, mission-critical facilities that meet security, accessibility, and sustainability standards. Vanderhye maintains consistent working relationships with a core 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 large-scale commercial landlords with established portfolios of Class A and B office properties in high-demand federal corridors. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based lease terms, rent escalation clauses, and build-out allowances, often involving complex space planning and fit-out coordination to meet federal occupancy standards. There is no use of socioeconomic set-asides in Vanderhye’s procurement portfolio; all acquisitions are conducted as full and open competitions. This reflects a strategic focus on market-wide competition to achieve optimal value, rather than targeted small business set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized, all vendors are evaluated on technical capability, financial stability, and lease compliance. His primary procurement activity is concentrated under NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—indicating deep expertise in commercial real estate leasing. He specializes in negotiating long-term leases for office environments, including tenant improvement allowances, renewal options, and operational cost pass-throughs, demonstrating specialized knowledge in federal real property acquisition policy and market-driven lease structuring.
