RLJ III - Em West Palm Beach Lessee, LLC

RLJ III - Em West Palm Beach Lessee, LLC, operating as Embassy Suites West Palm Beach - Central, provides temporary lodging and berthing accommodations to the Department of the Navy Reserve and the Department of the Army as a prime contractor under single-award and multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreements, with no set-aside designations across its federal work.

The vendor is a for-profit limited liability company and subsidiary of RLJ Lodging Trust, headquartered in West Palm Beach, Florida. Its federal work is concentrated in NAICS 722110 (Hotels except Casino Hotels and Motels), with lodging services as the primary capability. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurement without set-aside protection, and all ten awards in its federal portfolio are prime contracts — no subcontract footprint is present.

Customer concentration is singular. The Department of the Navy Reserve anchors 100% of the vendor's awards (4 awards, $2.4 million combined potential value), with the Navy Reserve Operational Support Centers, the Army Materiel Command Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command, and the Department of the Army as secondary customers carrying minimal dollar value ($37 thousand combined across 6 awards). The top-customers-by-award-count and top-customers-by-potential-value rankings track identically, reflecting the Navy Reserve's dominance across both volume and dollars. The vendor's work consists of monthly and seasonal berthing call orders for Navy reservists participating in drill weekends and training periods, plus occasional support for Army Yellow Ribbon Volunteer Training events. Recent representative awards include a $6,100 BPA call for January 2026 berthing, a $5,702 call for December 2025 berthing, and a $4,186 call for July 2024 berthing, all issued by the Navy Operational Support Centers under open competition.

The vendor holds two active parent BPA vehicles: a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (ceiling $150 thousand, effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and a predecessor single-award BPA (ceiling $250 thousand, performance through September 30, 2025), both with the Navy Reserve for reservist lodging. Earlier multiple-award BPAs with ceilings of $999,999 each ran through September 2023 and 2024 but have now expired. Two task orders under BPA N6835826A0056 carry $12 thousand in combined potential value.

Activity has remained sparse and episodic — two awards in 2016, then a five-year gap before resumption in 2022 with one award, followed by two awards in both 2023 and 2024, and three in 2025. Combined potential value across all ten awards is $2.4 million, with only $33 thousand obligated to date (1% of potential value), indicating the vendor's awards remain largely unexercised or in early draw-down phases. The vendor performs no subcontract work and operates exclusively as a prime lodging provider to military customer agencies.
