B 26-0746 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Modification Nos. M01, M02 and M03 to Contract No. CW131646 with Shaw Solutions LLC Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2026

This emergency bill approves three modifications to an existing contract with Shaw Solutions LLC to provide snow plowing and removal services in Washington, D.C., for the period from January 20, 2026, through January 19, 2027. The legislation authorizes a payment of up to $3 million to cover the equipment, trucks, and qualified operators needed to handle unanticipated snow and ice events that began in late January 2026. By bypassing standard procurement requirements, the bill allows the District to quickly secure additional funding to ensure snow removal continues without interruption. The contract remains an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity agreement covering four option periods, with Shaw Solutions LLC being one of five companies awarded contracts for this service.
