MIAMI—HealthPlan Services (HPS), a technology, sales, retention and administrative services provider for the insurance and managed care markets, is expanding its offices in Tampa. The project will create more than 1,000 jobs and result in a $34.4 million capital investment in Hillsborough County.

“In our search to determine where HPS would expand, we evaluated several states that had strong attributes,” says Jeff Bak, HPS president and CEO. The new project includes a new state-of-the-art 95,689-square-foot facility.

Chad Rupp, managing director of Jones Lang LaSalle's Central Florida business, represented HPS in the office expansion with JLL's Anne-Marie Woessner-Collins, who structured the tenant's economic incentive package in collaboration with the local and state government. Mercedes Angell and Jeff Lanning of Cushman & Wakefield represented the property's owner, Penn-Florida. Financial terms of the lease were not disclosed.
