About this file

This document contains a request for quotation (RFQ) for hotel conference space and guest rooms to support a conference hosted by the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) in September 2024. The RFQ seeks proposals from hotels in downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania that can offer a minimum of 500 sleeping rooms on peak nights, plus meeting space including one room that can accommodate approximately 1,100 attendees in rounds seating and 8-10 breakout rooms that can each seat approximately 100 people in theater style. Quotes are due by January 22, 2024 to the Department of Education, and award will be made as soon as possible thereafter to secure the necessary hotel space. The conference dates are preferred to be September 15-19, 2024 but September 22-26, 2024 will also be considered.
