The proposed bill modifies Contract No. DCAM-21-CS-RFP-0008Q with Procon Consulting, LLC to extend the performance period for construction management services within the Department of General Services (DGS). The modification allows for the continuation of services from June 16, 2025, to June 30, 2025, with a not-to-exceed amount of $3,000,000 and a guaranteed minimum payment of $50. Additionally, the bill incorporates the US Department of Labor Wage Determination Schedule No. 2015-4281 Rev No. 28, effective December 26, 2024, and the Living Wage Act of 2006, effective January 1, 2025. A release clause is included, where the contractor waives any claims against the Department related to delays or additional costs arising from this modification, while all other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged.
Furthermore, the bill outlines specific requirements for contractors engaged in construction management services, including the necessity for subcontracting plans for contracts exceeding $250,000, mandating that at least 50% of the contract's dollar volume be subcontracted to qualified small business enterprises (SBEs). It emphasizes the importance of hiring District residents and compliance with various employment regulations, including the Protecting Pregnant Workers Fairness Act of 2016. The bill also establishes extensive insurance requirements for contractors, ensuring adequate coverage to protect both the contractor and the District from potential liabilities. Overall, the legislation aims to enhance accountability, compliance, and equitable employment practices in the execution of construction management contracts.
