Kempenaar Real Estate Inc.

Kempenaar Real Estate Inc., operating through its Howard Johnson Inn division, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business structured as a subchapter S corporation and registered with the System for Award Management since August 25, 2017. The company specializes in providing temporary lodging and berthing services to support military personnel, particularly Navy Reserve and Rhode Island Army National Guard personnel conducting training, operations, and official travel in the Middletown and Newport, Rhode Island area. Kempenaar Real Estate Inc. serves as a reliable vendor for federal agencies requiring cost-effective, convenient accommodations that comply with government per diem rates and federal standards, with a demonstrated track record of consistent performance across multiple fiscal years.

Kempenaar Real Estate Inc. has provided lodging services through a comprehensive portfolio of federal contract awards spanning from 2021 through 2026. The company has received numerous Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call orders from the Navy Reserve and Navy Operational Support Centers, with individual task orders typically valued at $25,000 on a firm fixed-price basis. Additionally, the company has been awarded purchase orders from Navy Operational Support Centers for SELRES berthing services, with smaller awards ranging from approximately $2,153 to $10,360. All contract awards have been issued without set-aside designations, indicating that the company competes on an open basis. The vast majority of funding has originated from the U.S. Navy Reserve, with a smaller volume of awards from Navy Operational Support Centers and the Rhode Island Army National Guard. Kempenaar Real Estate Inc. performs these services as the prime contractor without utilizing subcontractors, delivering lodging accommodations that meet FEMA standards and government per diem requirements to support military readiness objectives.

Kempenaar Real Estate Inc. currently holds four primary federal contract Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Blanket Purchase Agreement vehicles. The most recent is a single-award BPA with the Navy Reserve awarded on October 1, 2025, valued at $250,000 with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026, designated for temporary lodging and berthing accommodations to support Navy Reserve personnel. A second vehicle is a multiple-award BPA with the Rhode Island Army National Guard awarded on January 31, 2025, valued at $250,000 and extending through April 30, 2027, which provides lodging facilities for the RIARNG's Inactive Duty Training sessions for personnel residing more than 50 miles from training locations. The company also maintains a single-award BPA with the Navy Reserve awarded on October 1, 2024, valued at $250,000 covering the period through September 30, 2025, which similarly supports Navy Reserve temporary lodging needs. Additionally, Kempenaar Real Estate Inc. holds an older single-award BPA with the Navy Reserve awarded on October 1, 2022, originally valued at $25,000 for the period through September 30, 2023. These BPA vehicles establish the contractual framework under which the Navy Reserve and Rhode Island Army National Guard issue individual task orders for lodging services as operational and training requirements arise, allowing the agencies flexibility in procuring temporary housing on an as-needed basis while maintaining cost control through firm fixed-price call orders.
