About Palace Travel, Inc.
Palace Travel, Inc. Head Quarters Division, doing business as Palace Travel, is a Philadelphia-based, 8(a)-certified minority-owned small disadvantaged business that provides event planning, catering, lodging coordination, and venue management services to federal defense and civilian agencies as a prime contractor. Palace Travel is Black American-owned, a DOT-certified DBE, and holds active 8(a) certification through November 17, 2027; the vendor competes predominantly on a sole-source 8(a) basis across its prime contract footprint, with recent activity split between 8(a) Sole Source and full-and-open set-asides.
Palace Travel's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of Defense. The Pennsylvania Army National Guard (a sub-entity of the Department of the Army) dominates the portfolio at 20 awards with $1.4 million in combined potential value, representing 63% of the top-customer coverage. However, the Department of Health and Human Services' Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) anchors the portfolio's dollar value with a single $3.7 million BPA awarded August 19, 2024, extending through August 11, 2029 (recently subject to a January 20, 2025 termination-for-convenience notice). The remaining customer base—the Department of Agriculture, the Department of the Air Force Air National Guard, and the United States Marine Corps—account for low-dollar, low-frequency awards. Palace Travel holds a $700,000 single-award BPA with the Pennsylvania National Guard (awarded January 7, 2025, through January 14, 2030) under which eight task orders have been placed with combined potential value of $308 thousand.
Palace Travel's work is almost entirely event logistics and military personnel support. The portfolio clusters under "All Other Travel Arrangement and Reservation Services" (14 awards), "Hotels (except Casino Hotels) and Motels" (4 awards), and "Convention and Trade Show Organizers" (3 awards), with corresponding PSC codes for housekeeping-food services, lodging, and military personnel recruitment events. Named work includes Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Conferences, military training assembly lodging, venue rental and catering for unit mobilization events, and large-scale conference support (the $75,438 February 2025 order to ASPR for a two-day Yellow Ribbon conference at Fort Indiantown Gap and State College, Pennsylvania; the $58,960 March 2024 order for the 55th Multifunctional Equipment Battalion event in Scranton; the $56,212 April 2023 order for 1,222 breakfast and dinner meals supporting Patriot Press operations in Annville).
Activity has been modest and erratic—five awards in 2022, one in 2023, six each in 2024 and 2025, and three in 2026—with combined potential value of $5.6 million against $1.2 million obligated (22% execution). Only one award faces ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete risk in the near term. Palace Travel operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards) with no subcontract footprint. All 32 awards in the source data are prime deliveries across nine distinct customer agencies, concentrated in Pennsylvania-based military installations and national guard operations.
