The proposed bill seeks to modify Contract No. DCAM-25-NC-RFP-0020C with Capital Construction Enterprises, Inc. by fully exercising option year one for On-call General Maintenance and Repair Services (M&R) with a not-to-exceed amount of $20,000,000. This modification extends the contract's performance period from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026, allowing the contractor to continue providing essential maintenance services across various disciplines. The modification includes a guaranteed minimum of $250 and confirms the contractor's compliance with District tax obligations. All other terms of the original contract remain unchanged, and the total contract value, including all option years, is now set at $20,995,000.
Additionally, the bill amends the Living Wage Act of 2006, establishing a new living wage rate of $17.50 per hour effective January 1, 2025, which will increase to $17.95 per hour on July 1, 2025. This requirement applies to contracts valued at $100,000 or more and includes specific exemptions for certain contracts and collective bargaining agreements. The bill also outlines wage determinations for various occupations under federal contracts, ensuring fair compensation and benefits for employees, while emphasizing compliance with minimum wage and paid sick leave standards. Overall, the bill aims to enhance wage standards and worker protections for those engaged in federal contract work.
