The proposed bill modifies Contract No. DCAM-21-CS-RFP-0008L with KUMI-KCI, a Joint Venture, to extend the contract's period of performance for construction management services from April 4, 2025, to April 3, 2026, with a not-to-exceed amount of $3,000,000. This modification includes a guaranteed minimum payment of $50 and allows for work to be awarded through competitive task orders. Additionally, the bill incorporates administrative corrections to previous modifications, specifically deleting Modifications 6 and 6.5 in their entirety and replacing them with updated language that clarifies the contract's performance period. The contractor also agrees to release the Department from any potential claims related to this modification.
Furthermore, the bill establishes multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for Project Management Consultant firms, detailing requirements for subcontracting, employment agreements, and insurance obligations. It mandates that contractors must subcontract at least 50% of the contract's dollar volume for contracts exceeding $250,000 and comply with hiring requirements to ensure that a significant portion of new hires are District residents. The bill emphasizes the importance of qualified personnel in construction management roles and outlines the responsibilities of contractors, including maintaining organized documentation, ensuring compliance with safety regulations, and adhering to non-discrimination clauses. Overall, the bill aims to enhance accountability, compliance, and operational efficiency in construction management services within the District of Columbia.
