The bill proposes Modification No. 4 to Contract No. DCAM-22-CS-RFQ-0001A with Bennett Group, Inc., which allows for the exercise of the fourth option year of the contract for construction services. This modification will be effective from May 2, 2026, to May 1, 2027, with a maximum value of $20,000,000. Under this contract, Bennett Group, Inc. will continue to provide construction services for various public facilities, including schools, parks, and municipal buildings. The modification also includes a guaranteed minimum value of $50 and confirms that the contractor is compliant with District tax obligations.

Additionally, the modification ensures that the contract remains within the appropriated budget authority for the fiscal year and aligns with the financial plan adopted by the Council. The bill outlines a series of previous modifications to the Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) initiated on May 2, 2022, which has seen incremental increases in contract value for each option year. The current modification, Mod No. 4, continues this trend by adding another $20,000,000 to the contract value for the fourth option year, while all other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged.
