The proposed bill seeks to modify Contract No. DCAM-25-NC-RFP-0020E with DC General Construction, 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 services across various disciplines, including electrical and plumbing. The modification includes a guaranteed minimum contract amount of $250 and updates the total contract ordering ceiling for all Task Orders issued during this option year to not exceed $20 million. Additionally, the bill incorporates compliance with the U.S. Department of Labor Wage Determination Schedule and the District of Columbia Living Wage Act of 2006.

Furthermore, the bill amends the Living Wage Act of 2006, establishing that recipients of new contracts or government assistance must pay affiliated employees and subcontractors no less than the current living wage, set to be $17.50 per hour effective January 1, 2025, and increasing to $17.95 per hour on July 1, 2025. It outlines specific exemptions from this requirement and clarifies that the Department of Employment Services will oversee enforcement. The bill also introduces new legal language specifying wage rates for various occupations, ensuring fair compensation aligned with industry standards, and includes provisions for health and welfare benefits, vacation time, and paid holidays for employees under federal contracts.
