Tim Craft

Tim Craft serves as a key procurement professional within the Public Buildings Service’s PBS R00 Center for Broker Services, responsible for managing the acquisition and leasing of nonresidential real estate to support federal agency operations nationwide. He plays a central role in executing the agency’s mission to optimize the federal footprint by securing efficient, secure, and cost-effective commercial workspace through long-term leases and property management agreements. His acquisitions primarily involve commercial office space and other nonresidential properties, leveraging competitive solicitation methods to ensure alignment with GSA’s real estate strategic objectives and fiscal stewardship standards. Craft maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of real estate developers and property owners, including TWO CON LLC, ONNI TIMES SQUARE LP, CVD MAIN LLC, BELTSVILLE GSA FDA LLC, and CC OWNER LLC. These partnerships are typically structured through direct lease negotiations and competitive bidding processes for prime commercial assets in high-demand federal corridors. His procurement approach emphasizes market-driven pricing, portfolio optimization, and long-term asset stability, fostering collaborative yet arms-length vendor relationships grounded in compliance and performance accountability. There is no set-aside preference in Craft’s procurement portfolio; all awards are competed without socioeconomic set-asides, reflecting a mission-driven focus on securing the most viable and cost-effective space regardless of vendor size or certification. This reflects a strategic decision to prioritize space quality, location, and operational readiness over socioeconomic contracting preferences, aligning with the agency’s mandate to serve federal tenants efficiently. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), which accounts for 84.2% of his activity, with additional activity under NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property). He specializes in the acquisition of leased commercial office space, including build-to-suit and adaptive reuse arrangements, demonstrating deep expertise in real estate leasing, property due diligence, and federal space planning under the GSA Real Estate Acquisition Framework.
