(2) Description of the Goods and Services to be provided:

All work must adhere to the District of Columbia codes and any other applicable regulations in effect at the
time of installation. The contractor is required to submit a construction schedule for approval before the

To ensure site security, the contractor must secure the working area at all times until the owner grants

equipment installations must comply with the manufacturer’s instructions and relevant codes. The contractor is
also responsible for training DCHA staff and external vendors on the newly installed systems.

contract period. Additionally, the contractor must demonstrate the proper operation and functionality of all
installed systems during the final walkthrough. Lastly, the contractor is responsible for providing vandal-

CCTV equipment.
(3) A description of the selection process, including the number of offerors, the evaluation criteria, the
ev
aluation results, and the basis for selecting the proposed contractor:
The selection process for the contract followed a two-part approach. First, a Request for Qualifications (RFQu)
was issued (RFQ 0013-2022) to establish a Qualified Bidders List (QBL). Respondents were required to submit
information regarding their capacity, qualifications, and experience. These submissions were evaluated
according to the criteria outlined in Section E of the RFQu to determine the list of qualified respondents.
Following the establishment of the QBL, a Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued exclusively to the
contractors on this list. DCHA anticipated releasing RFPs beginning in the first quarter of 2023, allowing
qualified contractors to submit proposals for specific projects. The evaluation of these proposals focused on
selecting the most responsive and qualified bidder.
The evaluation criteria, as outlined in Section E of the RFQu, assigned a total possible score of 205 points. Key
evaluation factors included the qualifications of the respondents, the experience and expertise of key personnel,
general contracting knowledge, contractor capacity, project management plans, references, compliance with
Section 3, and participation in MBE/WBE/SBE/VBE/LSA/S3B contracting initiatives. Each of these categories
had specific sub-criteria with designated point allocations.
DCHA reserved the right to award contracts based solely on initial responses without conducting further
discussions. Therefore, respondents were required to submit their best and final terms in their initial proposals.

including all exploratory work done by the PHA, as well
as from the drawings and specifications made a part of
this contract. Any failure of the Contractor to take the
actions described and acknowledged in this paragraph
will not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for
estimating properly the difficulty and cost of successfully
performing the work, or for proceeding to successfully
perform the work without additional expense to the PHA .
(b) The PHA assumes no responsibility for any conclusions
or interpretations made by the Contractor based on the
information made available by the PHA. Nor does the
PHA assume responsibility for any understanding
reached or representation made concerning conditions
which can affect the work by any of its officers or agents
before the execution of this contract, unless that
understanding or representation is expressly stated in
this contract.
8. Differing Site Conditions
(a) The Contractor shall promptly, and before the conditions
are disturbed, give a written notice to the Contracting Officer
of (1) subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site which
differ materially from those indicated in this contract, or (2)
unknown physical condition s at the site(s), of an unusual
nature, which differ materially from those ordinarily
encountered and generally recognized as inhering in work of
the character provided for in the contract.
(b) The Contracting Officer shall investigate the site
conditions prom ptly after receiving the notice. Work shall not
proceed at the affected site, except at the
Contractor’s risk, until the Contracting Officer has
provided written instructions to the Contractor. If the
conditions do materially so differ and cause an increas e
or decrease in the Contractor’s cost of, or the time
required for, performing any part of the work under this
contract, whether or not changed as a result of the
conditions, the Contractor shall file a claim in writing to
the PHA within ten days after re ceipt of such instructions
and, in any event, before proceeding with the work. An
equitable adjustment in the contract price, the delivery
schedule, or both shall be made under this clause and
the contract modified in writing accordingly.
(c) No request by the Contractor for an equitable
adjustment to the contract under this clause shall be
allowed, unless the Contractor has given the written notice
required; provided, that the time prescribed in (a) above for
giving written notice may be extended by the Contra cting
Officer.
(d) No request by the Contractor for an equitable adjustment
to the contract for differing site conditions shall be allowed if
made after final payment under this contract.
9. Specifications and Drawings for Construction
(a) The Contractor shall keep on the work site a copy of the
drawings and specifications and shall at all times give
the Contracting Officer access thereto. Anything
mentioned in the specifications and not shown on the
drawings, or shown on the drawings and not mentioned
in the s pecifications, shall be of like effect as if shown or
mentioned in both. In case of difference between
drawings and specifications, the specifications shall
govern. In case of discrepancy in the figures, in the
drawings, or in the specifications, the matte r shall be
promptly make a determination in writing. Any adjustment
by the Contractor without such a determination shall be at
its own risk and expense. The Contracting Officer shall
furnish from time to time such detailed drawings and other
information as considered necessary, unless
otherwise provided.
(b) Wherever in the specifications or upon the drawings the
words “directed”, “required”, “ordered”, “designated”,
“prescribed”, or words of like import are used, it shall be
understood that the “direction”, “requirement”, “order”,
“designation”, or “prescription”, of the Contracting Officer is
intended and similarly the words “approved”, “acceptable”,
“satisfactory”, or words of like import shall mean “approved
by”, or “acceptable to”, or “satisf actory to” the Contracting
Officer, unless otherwise expressly stated.
(c) Where “as shown” “as indicated”, “as detailed”, or words
of similar import are used, it shall be understood that the
reference is made to the drawings accompanying this
contract unless stated otherwise. The word “provided” as
used herein shall be understood to mean “provide
complete in place” that is “furnished and installed”.
(d) “Shop drawings” means drawings, submitted to the PHA
by the Contractor, subcontractor, or any lower tier
subcontractor, showing in detail (1) the proposed fabrication
and assembly of structural elements and (2) the installation
(i.e., form, fit, and attachment details) of materials of
equipment. It includes drawings, diagrams, layouts,
schematics, descriptive literature, illustrations, schedules,
performance and test data, and similar materials furnished by
the Contractor to explain in detail specific portions of the work
required by the contract. The PHA may duplicate, use, and
disclose in any manner and for any purpose shop drawings
delivered under this contract.
(e) If this contract requires shop drawings, the Contractor
shall coordinate all such drawings, and review them for
accuracy, completeness, and compliance with other contract
requirements and shall indic ate its approval thereon as
evidence of such coordination and review. Shop drawings
submitted to the Contracting Officer without evidence of the
Contractor’s approval may be returned for resubmission.
The Contracting Officer will indicate an approval or
di sapproval of the shop drawings and if not approved as
submitted shall indicate the PHA’s reasons therefore. Any
work done before such approval shall be at the Contractor’s
risk. Approval by the Contracting Officer shall not relieve the
Contractor from resp onsibility for any errors or omissions in
such drawings, nor from responsibility for complying with the
requirements of this contract, except with respect to
variations described and approved in accordance with (f)
below.
(f) If shop drawings show variations f rom the contract
requirements, the Contractor shall describe such variations in
writing, separate from the drawings, at the time of
submission. If the Architect approves any such variation and
the Contracting Officer concurs, the Contracting Officer shall
issue an appropriate modification to the contract, except that,
if the variation is minor or does not involve a change in price
or in time of performance, a modification need not be issued.
(g) It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to make
timely re quests of the PHA for such large scale and full size
drawings, color schemes, and other additional information,
not already in his possession, which shall be
