The bill proposes modifications to Contract No. DCAM-21-CS-RFP-0008P with Mark G. Anderson Consultants, Inc., allowing the full exercise of Option Year 4 for construction management services, with a not-to-exceed amount of $5,500,000 and a performance period from April 15, 2026, to April 14, 2027. It ensures that the contractor continues to provide essential services for the Department of General Services' facilities while confirming that the contractor is current with District taxes and that the modification aligns with the appropriated budget authority. The bill also includes a release clause where the contractor waives any claims against the Department related to delays or additional costs arising from the modification.
Additionally, the bill establishes new insurance requirements for contractors, mandating that general liability insurance includes an affirmative sexual abuse and molestation endorsement, and requires evidence of commercial umbrella or excess liability insurance with minimum limits of $10,000,000. It emphasizes that the required insurance must be primary to any other insurance maintained by the District and that contractors must notify the Contracting Officer of any changes in coverage. Overall, the legislation aims to enhance accountability and compliance in construction management services while ensuring adequate protection for the District against potential liabilities.
