Identification and Description of Action Being Approved: The General Services Administration (GSA) currently leases 16,000 rentable square feet (RSF) of office space at x Metairie, LA under lease number GS-07P-LLA15809 for the x. The current lease expires May 24, 2016. Approval is requested to negotiate a succeeding lease with the incumbent lessor without full and open competition for continued occupancy at this leased location. •2. Description of Supplies or Services Required: X submitted complete requirements package as a continuing needs project on November 19, 2015 for 16,000 RSF of office and related space. To satisfy the x mission requirements for this x, GSA has completed a reduction in space project with the incumbent lessor in order to meet the space requirements as directed. In addition, the facility is currently designed to meet all other requirements including location, IT & Security infrastructure. This requirement is for 16,000 RSF of space for 15 years / 10 years firm term which will commence on or before May 25, 2016. The estimated annual cost of this lease is $x RSF for 10 years plus $x RSF for the remaining 5 years with a total contract value of $ x. The delineated area is within the community of Metairie, LA. •3. Identification of Statutory Authority: 41 U.S.C. 253(c) (1): Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. •4. Demonstration that the Acquisition Requires use of the Authority Cited: GSAM 570.402-4 allows for negotiation with the incumbent lessor when there are no potential acceptable locations identified through the advertisement or the market survey, and written justification to negotiate directly with the incumbent lessor is prepared documenting the efforts to locate alternative sources. GSA placed an advertisement as required by GSAM 570.402-2 on the Federal Business Opportunities Web site ( fedbizopps.gov ) on or about November 23, 2015 to determine further cost and benefit analysis information. It has been determined that the incumbent lessor is the only responsible source that can meet the agency's requirements; the Government intends to negotiate a succeeding lease and remain at the current location. •5. Description of Efforts to Solicit as Many Offers as Practical: GSA conducted market research in the delineated area using Bulls eye process with CoStar information and returned two other properties that could possibly meet the agency's requirements. However, not as timely, cost effective and beneficial to the government as the incumbent location. x Metairie, LA •6.

Recent market research conducted by GSA in the area of Metairie, LA identified two available locations within the delineated area that are capable of satisfying the agency requirements. However, the research also revealed both locations would incur significant challenges in fully meeting the requirements in a cost efficient & timely manner. The incumbent location would not require any tenant improvements or other related costs, thus saving the government up to $x in potential relocation costs in addition to a timely delivery as required by the customer. GSA lease inventory within the last ten years (2005) identified two GSA leases that ranged from $x to $x RSF. •7. Description of the Market Survey Conducted: GSA conducted market research in the delineated area using Bulls eye process with CoStar information and the findings indicate the incumbent property as capable of satisfying the agency's requirements as the incumbent lessor offers the most cost effective, timely and beneficial to the government procurement.
