The United States Government currently occupies office and related space in a building under lease in Osage, Iowa that has expired. The Government is seeking to lease approximately 4,592 contiguous rentable square feet of office and related space. The rentable space must yield a minimum of 3,966 contiguous ANSI/ BOMA Office area square feet (OASF). The lease term requirement is for 5 years with one 5 year option. The space must be available for occupancy by June 1, 2012. The delineated area is bounded on the North by Poplar Street, on the East by Orchard Road, on the South by Lyndale Avenue, and on the West by Lime/Kiln Road/S 1st Street. Other applicable requirements include: - Parking space for 48 vehicles The Government is considering alternative space if economically advantageous. The Government will use the information it receives in response to this advertisement as basis to develop a cost-benefit analysis and to determine whether to compete the lease requirement or pursue a sole source justification to remain at its current location. In making this determination, the Government will consider, among other things, the availability of alternate space that potentially can satisfy the Government’s requirements, as well as costs likely to be incurred through relocating, such as physical move costs, replication of tenant improvements and telecommunications infrastructure, and non-productive agency downtime. Due date for expression of interest is April 16, 2012 Please send written expressions of interest to:
