THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS or a solicitation of offers. However, the Government will consider written responses from all responsible sources received by 5PM ET, June 20, 2026. Written responses must include sufficient information to establish the capability to fulfill the requirement. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed requirement is solely within the discretion of the Government.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) intends to negotiate and award a five-year, firm-term sole-source lease to Beacon Capital Partners, doing business as LCPC Lafayette Property LLC. This agreement covers the agency’s existing headquarters footprint of 289,295 rentable square feet located at 1155 21st St. NW, Washington, DC 20581. The requirement falls under PSC X1AA for the lease or rental of office buildings and NAICS 531120 for lessors of nonresidential buildings (except miniwarehouses). There is no set-aside associated with this action, identified under solicitation number CFTCHQLease.
The primary purpose of this new lease is to maintain operations at the current headquarters beyond the September 30, 2027, expiration of the existing agreement. This five-year period provides the necessary time to competitively award a new long-term lease and complete the design, build-out, and relocation process. The agency determined that remaining at the current location is essential to avoid work disruptions and to ensure sufficient space for staff growth as the CFTC addresses industry innovation. The government is procuring this requirement under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as no other property can satisfy the agency's needs by the required start date of October 1, 2027.
While this notice is not a request for competitive proposals, the government will consider written responses from responsible sources that establish the capability to fulfill the requirement. Submissions are due by 5:00 PM ET on June 20, 2026, and will be used solely for future market research purposes. The CFTC, which possesses independent leasing authority, anticipates making an award on or about September 30, 2026. Benjamin Van Wormer serves as the point of contact for this pre-solicitation notice, which currently includes no attachments.
