The proposed resolution, known as the Contract No. CW124879 with Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc. Emergency Approval Resolution of 2025, seeks to authorize a multi-year contract for ticket processing and related services for parking and traffic violations, running from October 16, 2025, through October 15, 2030, with a total not-to-exceed amount of $100,457,950.38. The contract is exempt from competition due to Modaxo's status as the incumbent provider with a proven track record. It includes a subcontracting plan that mandates at least 35% of the contract amount be subcontracted to small, local, and disadvantaged businesses. The resolution emphasizes the need for prompt action to ensure continuity of services and has been deemed legally sufficient by the Office of the Attorney General.
Additionally, the bill outlines significant enhancements to the Ticket and Adjudication Services System (TASS) used by various District agencies, aiming to improve efficiency and user-friendliness. Key provisions include the integration of a new user interface, enhanced search capabilities, and the introduction of web-based templates. The contractor is required to maintain high security standards, conduct thorough testing, and provide ongoing support throughout the contract's duration. Notably, the bill introduces a new clause regarding the termination of contracts, specifying compensation processes and the introduction of a "Force Majeure Events" clause, which allows for contract obligations to be suspended during unforeseen circumstances. Overall, the bill aims to modernize the ticket processing system while ensuring compliance with employment and insurance standards for contractors.
