How to bid on a GSA office lease in Oxford, MS (Solicitation No. 6MS0112)
What the GSA is buying and why it matters to vendors
The General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service is looking to lease office space in Oxford, Mississippi. They need 5,342 ABOA (American National Standards Institute/Building Owners and Managers Association Office Area) square feet, along with 15 reserved government parking spaces. The lease term is 20 years, which includes a 15-year firm term.
This is an opportunity for property owners or their authorized representatives to offer a modern, quality building that can meet specific GSA requirements. The GSA is seeking a fully serviced lease, meaning the rental rate should include all operating costs. This long-term lease could provide stable income for a suitable property.
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
Expressions of interest are due by August 17, 2026, at 5:00 PM ET. This is a firm deadline for submitting your property details.
After the deadline, GSA expects to conduct a market survey in Fall 2026. This RFI (Request for Information) is the initial step in their process to identify potential properties.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for owners or authorized representatives of properties in Oxford, MS, specifically within the delineated area. The property must be a modern, quality building, or one that will undergo modernization by occupancy.
The space must be suitable for office use and meet detailed requirements for security, accessibility, fire safety, and sustainability. Properties near certain hazardous facilities or other specific types of buildings will not be considered. Special consideration is given to properties that can provide contiguous space, preferably on the second floor or higher.
How to respond to this solicitation
To respond, you must submit an expression of interest. This submission needs to include the building name and address, contact information for the offeror's representative, the ABOA and rentable square feet available (specifying floors), and the asking full-service rental rate.

Practical tips for preparing a competitive response

Clearly detail how your property meets the GSA's needs for a modern, efficient office layout with maximum flexibility. If your building requires any upgrades to meet fire safety, accessibility, or security standards, be prepared to address how these will be completed by the estimated occupancy date. Provide a clear breakdown of your proposed rental rates, distinguishing between the full-service rate and the rates including allowances, as requested.
