The proposed bill seeks to extend Contract No. DCAM-20-NC-RFP-0013-A8 with RBK Construction, Inc. for an additional year, from June 26, 2025, to June 25, 2026, allowing for on-call facility maintenance and repair services, particularly for HVAC systems. The modification sets a not-to-exceed amount of $14,000,000 and includes provisions for a minimum order value of $250. The contractor is required to comply with the U.S. Department of Labor Wage Determination Schedule and the District of Columbia Living Wage Act of 2006, with the living wage rate set to increase from $17.50 per hour on January 1, 2025, to $17.95 per hour on July 1, 2025. The bill also includes a release clause for the contractor regarding claims related to delays or additional costs.

In addition to the contract extension, the bill amends the Living Wage Act of 2006, defining "affiliated employee" and outlining compliance requirements for subcontractors. It specifies exemptions from the Living Wage Act for certain contracts and emphasizes enforcement by the Department of Employment Services. Furthermore, the bill introduces new legal language to enhance transparency and accountability in financial transactions, while also removing outdated legal language to streamline operations. These changes aim to modernize the legal framework governing financial management and ensure effective utilization of funds.
