The "Modification Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 Contract No. DCAM-20-AE-0019 with DLR Group of DC, P.C., Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2025" is an emergency bill that seeks to approve multiple modifications to an existing contract for architectural and engineering services related to the Metropolitan Police Department's Daly Building swing space. The bill authorizes a total payment of $2,775,355 for these modifications, which are necessary due to changes prompted by Board of Zoning Appeals hearings. Key modifications include an increase in the contract value, adjustments to construction documents, and an extension of the project completion date from July 20, 2025, to September 30, 2026. The contractor, DLR Group of DC, P.C., has been confirmed to be compliant with tax obligations and is not debarred from providing services.
Additionally, the bill outlines the need for further architectural and engineering services for the construction of a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) and includes a change order for structural analysis related to a new diesel roof generator. The total contract amount is adjusted to reflect these modifications, including a new allocation for a 1,500 square foot museum space in the Marion Barry Building. The contractor agrees to waive any claims against the Department of General Services related to delays or additional costs arising from these modifications, while all other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged.
