PR 26-0711 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Modification Nos. M0010 and M0011 to Contract No. CW92877 with Avid Systems, LLC Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2026

This bill authorizes the District of Columbia to approve two modifications to an existing contract with Avid Systems, LLC, which supplies information technology equipment and software. The legislation increases the contract's spending limit from $1 million to $10 million for the period between February 2026 and February 2027 and permits immediate payment for goods and services already delivered. Because the contract value exceeds the $1 million threshold set by local law, the bill requires Council approval to continue these vital services without interruption. The measure is designated as an emergency action to allow for a single reading and immediate effect.
