Broker Services - GSA Leasing Support Services (GLS)

Overview

GLS is a collection of multiple, zonal Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts, designed to complement GSA’s leasing workforce and provide support services to the regions in an effort to manage each region’s lease workload. This tool leverages contractors’ expertise to provide more efficient space solutions. The purpose is to assist in delivering the best value in space solutions for the Government and taxpayers, leveraging private sector resources and expertise with reduced contract administration. The GLS Team is extremely pleased to reflect on the many accomplishments that we have realized three years into this contract. Now, with the award of more than 600 task orders, GSA is truly embracing the leasing expertise that our brokers have to offer. Not only has GSA’s commitment to success allowed us to exceed our internal metrics for two consecutive years, we are projecting an estimated $134 million in commission credit to benefit our Tenant Agencies through rent reduction. In recognition of its innovation and outstanding achievements, GLS was honored to receive a 2016 PBS Project Management Award in the Beyond Space category. Additionally, as part of the 2016 GSA Achievement Award for Real Property Best Practices and Innovation [PDF - 1 MB], GLS received Special Achievement recognition within the Asset Management category. In response to Hurricane Maria and Irma, GLS supported several regions by issuing more than a dozen task orders exclusively for FEMA Emergency leases. We appreciate the partnership of both brokers and CORs working together to delivery office and warehouse space under these unfortunate circumstances. The first two years have proven to be a resounding success due to all the hard work and enthusiasm of our exceptional team of dedicated CORs and program officials. With such a commitment to excellence, we are setting the stage for even greater accomplishments in 2018.
