The Armed Forces Retirement Home (“AFRH”), an independent agency of the executive branch, is pleased to issue this Request for Qualifications (“RFQ”) for the renovation and long-term operation, maintenance, and management of its historic 9-hole golf course, driving range, and related facilities located on its campus in Washington, DC (“AFRH-W”).

AFRH will use competitive procedures to consider responses to this RFQ in accordance with its authorities under Title 24 United States Code (USC) Chapter 10. The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) will provide administrative support to AFRH for this RFQ but will not be responsible for the selection decision.

The DC campus is comprised of 272 acres and bounded on the east by North Capitol Street NW, the south by Irving Street NW, the west by Park Place NW and Rock Creek Church Road NW; and the north by Harewood Road NW. Of this total acreage, the area that is the subject of this RFQ is located in the southwestern corner and is approximately 108.5 contiguous acres.

AFRH intends to take advantage of its authorities to offer the lands and structures pertaining to the AFRH-W golf course (“Golf Course”) and is seeking qualifications for a golf course partner to manage the renovation and operations of the existing Golf Course. All interested partners (“Respondents”) shall submit the requisite information outlined in this Request for Qualifications (“RFQ”) in order to be shortlisted to respond to a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) to be issued early in the second quarter of 2025.
