    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has issued a notice detailing a list of federal properties recommended for disposal, consolidation, or co-location by the Public Buildings Reform Board (PBRB). The evaluation considered various factors, including financial returns, marketability, and agency mission impacts, to prioritize high and medium-value projects. While efficiency and usage rates for office buildings were identified, it's deemed infeasible to apply a universal standard for non-office buildings due to their varied purposes. The PBRB, with the help of the General Services Administration (GSA), is responsible for thoroughly vetting these properties before any action is taken.

    Simple Explanation

    The Government is looking at a list of its buildings to see if they should be sold, shared, or used better, but they haven't given many details about which buildings or why. They're also figuring out the best way to measure how efficiently these buildings are used, which is tricky because not all buildings are the same.
