The resolution declares an emergency regarding the need to approve three modifications to Contract No. CW116019 with Immediate Mailing Services, Inc., which provides essential printing and mailing services for the District of Columbia Access System. The contract, initially executed on May 28, 2024, has undergone several modifications that have increased its not-to-exceed (NTE) amount significantly, necessitating Council approval due to the total value exceeding $1 million within a 12-month period. The modifications include extending the contract period and increasing the funding to ensure the continuation of these vital services.

The Council recognizes the urgency of this situation, as without approval, Immediate Mailing Services, Inc. would not be compensated for the goods and services rendered beyond the $1 million threshold. The resolution allows for the immediate adoption of these modifications after a single reading, emphasizing the critical nature of the services provided under this contract. The resolution is effective immediately upon passage.
