The proposed bill seeks to modify Contract No. DCAM-24-NC-RFP-0020B with The Robert Bobb Group by exercising Option Year Two, which will extend the contract from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2026, with a maximum value of $1,500,000 and a guaranteed minimum of $250. This contract encompasses strategic management consulting services, including maintenance and emergency response, aimed at reducing concentrated work orders. The modification also ensures compliance with the U.S. Department of Labor Wage Determination and the District of Columbia Living Wage Act, requiring the contractor to adhere to these regulations throughout the option period. A release clause is included, where the contractor waives any claims against the Department related to this modification.

Additionally, the bill outlines the Living Wage Act of 2006, which mandates that contractors and recipients of government assistance in the District of Columbia pay their employees a minimum wage that aligns with the living wage, set to increase to $17.50 per hour in 2025 and $17.95 per hour starting July 1, 2025. The bill clarifies the definition of "affiliated employee" and specifies exemptions from the Living Wage Act, including contracts subject to higher federal wage determinations and certain essential services. The enforcement of the Living Wage Act will be overseen by the Department of Employment Services and the D.C. Office of Contracting and Procurement, emphasizing the importance of reporting violations and ensuring compliance with wage requirements.
