The proposed Modification No. M05 to Contract No. DCAM-25-NC-RFP-0020I with Keystone Plus Construction Corporation seeks to exercise Option Year Two (OY2) for General Contractor On-call General Maintenance and Repair Services, allowing for a maximum expenditure of $20,000,000 from October 1, 2026, to September 30, 2027. The modification includes a guaranteed minimum of $250 and mandates the contractor to provide various maintenance and repair services across the District of Columbia, including essential trades such as electrical, mechanical, and plumbing. The modification has been certified by the Office of the General Counsel and is compliant with the appropriated budget authority for the fiscal year.

Additionally, the bill amends the Living Wage Act of 2006, establishing a living wage of $17.95 per hour starting January 1, 2026, and increasing to $18.40 on July 1, 2026, for contractors and recipients of government assistance. It clarifies the definition of "affiliated employee" to exclude those providing only incidental services and outlines specific exemptions from the Living Wage Act, including contracts subject to higher federal wage determinations and certain service contracts. The Department of Employment Services (DOES) will monitor compliance, and mechanisms for reporting violations are established.
