The proposed bill seeks to modify Contract No. DCAM-20-NC-RFP-0001E with GNT Group, LLC, to fully exercise Option Year Five (OY5) for city-wide landscaping maintenance and supplemental services in Wards 1, 2, and Maryland. The modification is set at a not-to-exceed amount of $1,440,420.43, covering the period from June 1, 2025, to May 31, 2026. It includes $1,040,420.43 for basic services and $400,000 for non-guaranteed supplemental services. The bill also introduces a Rider Clause as Section G.12 and replaces specific contract recap items, while maintaining all other terms of the original contract.
Additionally, the bill outlines financial provisions for the landscaping services, including a total contract value of $7,083,373.49, which encompasses previous years. It specifies the living wage requirements effective January 1, 2025, and outlines compliance responsibilities for the Office of Contracting and Procurement regarding the Home Care Final Rule. The bill aims to modernize the legal framework by deleting outdated provisions and inserting new language to enhance clarity and compliance, ensuring that the legislation remains relevant and effective.
