The bill seeks to approve Contract No. DCAM-24-CS-RFP-0016 with Fort Myer Construction Corporation for the design-build services associated with the Fletcher Johnson Middle School Roadway and Infrastructure Improvements project, with a total not-to-exceed amount of $5,977,860. This includes an existing letter contract amount of $950,000. The project will be executed in two phases: the Design and Preconstruction Phase, followed by the Construction Phase, with substantial completion expected by May 31, 2027. The contract was awarded after a competitive RFP process, and Fort Myer Construction Corporation was selected based on their technical proposals, pricing, and past performance.

The bill also modifies the existing contract by extending its duration from June 30, 2025, to July 15, 2025, while maintaining the not-to-exceed amount at $950,000. It includes a no-cost modification and a release clause where the contractor waives any claims against the Department related to delays or additional costs from this modification. Furthermore, the bill emphasizes compliance with various acts, including the Davis Bacon Act and the Living Wage Act, and mandates that the contractor adheres to local business enterprise requirements and maintains transparency throughout the procurement process. All other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged.
