The Honorable Phil Mendelson
Chairman
Council of the District of Columbia
1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Suite 504
Washington, DC 20004
Dear Chairman Mendelson:
Pursuant to D.C. Code §2-352.02 (b )(2), I have enclosed for consideration by the Council of the District of Columbia
("Council"), the Council Contract Summary for a proposed contract, in the amount of One Million Nine Hundred Ninety­
Four Thousand Six Hundred Fifty-Two and 40/00 Dollars ($1,994,652.40) between the District of Columbia Housing
Authority ("OCHA") and Padula Construction Company, Inc. ("Padula"). This proposed contract is for lead abatement
in units at the Greenleaf Senior project located at 1200 Delaware Avenue, SW, Washington, DC (the "Project").
OCHA plans to enter into the contract with Padula to finance the lead abatement of the Project using an allocation of
$1,994,652.40 in capital funds appropriated by the Council of the District of Columbia in the District of Columbia FY
2024 Approved Budget and Financial Plan.
OCHA procured Padula pursuant to OCHA Solicitation Number 0007-2019, a Request for Job Order Contractors.
Under a Job Order Contracting ("JOC") contract, OCHA awards an approved contractor a Detailed Scope of Work and
the contractor prepares a cost proposal using a construction catalog, which contains a range of construction and
construction related tasks and prices. OCHA awarded Padula a one-year contract with four additional one-year
options. Pending approval by the Council, OCHA proposes to award to Padula a contract to complete the Project.
As always, I am available to discuss any questions you may have regarding the proposed contract. In order to facilitate
a response to any questions concerning this action, please have your staff contact Alethea McNair, my Chief of Staff, at
(202) 993-8190.
I look forward to your favorable consideration of this proposed contract.

COUNCIL CONTRACT SUMMARY
Pursuant to D.C. Official Code § 2-352.02(c), as amended, the following is provided:
(1) The name of the proposed contractor, the contract/loan amount, and the term the
proposed contract:
Contractor: Padula Construction Company, Inc.
Contractor Principal: Donato Padula
Contract Amount: $1,994,652.40
Contract Term(s): 364 days
Source Selection Method: Job Order Contracting Procurement
(2) Description of the Goods and Services to be provided:
Pursuant to D.C. Official Code §2-352.02(b)(2), as amended, I have enclosed for
consideration the Job Order Contract ("JOC") for Lead Abatement in Units at Greenleaf
Senior, located at 1200 Delaware Avenue in the Southwest quadrant of Washington, DC
(the “Project”).
(3) A description of the selection process, including the number of offerors, the
evaluation criteria, the evaluation results, and the basis for selecting the
proposed contractor:
DCHA has determined that the proposed contract meets the procurement and
selection requirements applicable to DCHA.
The JOC procurement is a duly recognized procurement method that allows DCHA to
select numerous construction contractors for multi-year contracts. This method allows
DCHA to undertake a wide variety of renovation, repair and construction projects
throughout its portfolio without having to specify the projects on which a particular
contractor will work. Under the JOC, the contractor receives from DCHA an approved
Detailed Scope of Work and the contractor prepares a cost proposal using a construction
catalog which contains a range of construction and construction-related tasks and prices.
Each task has a complete and detailed description, an established unit of measure, and an
established unit price. The unit price includes the direct cost of labor, materials, and
equipment.
April 15, 2029, DCHA advertised an Invitation for Bid (“IFB”) with Solicitation
Number, IFB-2019, in the Washington Post, Afro American, The Current Newspaper,
The Washington Informer, Hill Rag, El Tiempo Latino, and East of the River. Copies
were mailed to all District Government Certified Business Entity Members and all
District of Columbia Department of Housing and Community Development (“DHCD”)
Section 3 vendors.
The procurement solicited bids from qualified construction companies who had the
capacity, experience, staff, and ability to undertake numerous projects. In addition, the
{0030164 -}
solicitation stated that DCHA would award a one-year base contract with options to
award four additional one-year contracts, based on satisfactory performance.
In response to the IFB-2019 Solicitations, DCHA received bids from eighty-seven (87)
firms and made thirteen (13) awards. Among those selected, DCHA awarded a JOC to
Padula Construction Company, Inc. under Solicitation Number 0007-2019 for a one-
year base contract with options to award four (4) additional one (1) year contracts to
renew with a minimum contract amount of $25,000 and a maximum contract amount
of $10,000,000 with a maximum aggregate contract total amount of $50,000,000.
Accordingly, DCHA has an existing JOC with Padula Construction Co., Inc. and has
provided Padula Construction Co. Inc. with a Detailed Scope of Work for the Project.
Padula Construction Co. Inc. has evaluated the scope of work and has submitted a price
of $1,994,652.40 to construct the Project.
The initiation and completion of the required work are clearly within the scope of the
services to be provided by the procured contractor. The scope of work for the Project
contains sufficient details and plans.
(4) Background and qualifications of the proposed contractor:
Since award of the JOC to Padula Construction Co., Inc. on May 30, 2019, DCHA has
awarded 26 individual task orders with a total value of $33,310,046.98. Padula
Construction Company, Inc. has successfully completed this work on time and within
budget for these projects.
(5) Performance standards and expected outcomes of the proposed contract:
DCHA expects that the Project will be constructed according to approved construction
documents and consistent with all District code and building regulations. The contractor
is also responsible for meeting LSBDE subcontracting goals and employment goals as
required by DCHA and the District.
(6) Description of the funding source for the proposed agreement and a
certification that the proposed agreement is consistent with the
District's financial plan and budget:
The funding source for the proposed agreement will be capital funds appropriated by
the Council of the District of Columbia in the FY 2024 Approved Budget and
Financial Plan.
(7) A certification of legal sufficiency:
The Legal Sufficiency Memorandum is attached.
{0030164 -}
(8) A certification that the proposed contractor's/proposed owner is in
compliance with District tax laws:
The District tax law compliance certification is attached.
(9) The status of the proposed contractor as a certified local, small or
disadvantaged business enterprise.
Padula Construction Company, Inc. is a LBE, SBE, & DZE, business.
(10) A statement indicating whether the proposed contractor is currently
debarred from providing services or good to the District or federal
government:
DCHA’s Office of Administrative Service has conducted a federal and local
search of Padula Construction Company, Inc. and has found no evidence of
federal or District debarment.
(11) A Certification that the contractor is currently not, and will not, be in
violation of the District of Columbia Code §1-1163.34a regarding
