Redacted Justification for a Lease in Houston TX: Solicitation Number 2TX1301

Background

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), specifically GSA Region 7 Leasing Division, is seeking to negotiate a succeeding lease for office space currently leased at 5825 North Sam Houston Pkwy W, Houston, TX 77086. The existing lease, number LTX16714, is set to expire on March 24, 2026. The justification for this action is based on the need for continued occupancy at this location without full and open competition due to the unique requirements of the agency and the lack of available federal space.

Work Details

The requirement is for 50,366 ABOA/55,226 rentable square feet of office and related space for a term of 10 years with a 5-year firm term commencing on March 25, 2026. The delineated area for this lease includes: - North: Cypress Creek Pkwy - West: Perry Rd. - South: Fallbrook Dr. - East: Hollister Rd. The justification cites that there is no vacant federal space available and that moving to another location would incur substantial costs that would not be recovered through competition. The current location allows the agency to utilize existing tenant improvements which include offices, specialized security features, and conference/training rooms necessary for their mission. A cost-benefit analysis indicates that remaining at the current location is more economical than relocating.

Period of Performance

The contract will commence on March 25, 2026, following the expiration of the current lease on March 24, 2026, and will last for a total of ten years.

Place of Performance

5825 North Sam Houston Pkwy W, Houston, TX 77086, Houston, Texas.
