THIS IS A PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENT (PLA) SURVEY ONLY.

*****No proposals are being requested or accepted with this PLA notice.*****

This is a SPECIAL NOTICE. The Corps of Engineers Louisville District is soliciting comments from the construction community addressing the potential use of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) for a large-scale construction project ($35 million or more) for the following:

Project scope: This project is a Design-Bid-Build and will construct a collocated Area Maintenance Support Activity (AMSA) and Vehicle Maintenance Shop (VMS) on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska. Building design(s) will comply with Unified Facilities Criteria, UFC 4-171-05, Army Reserve Facilities. Supporting facilities include land clearing, paving, concrete aprons, vehicle wash rack/platform, bi-level equipment loading ramp, fencing, general site improvements and utility connections. Accessibility for the disabled will be provided. Antiterrorism/Force Protection (AT/FP) and physical security measures will be incorporated into the design including maximum standoff distances from roads, parking areas and vehicle unloading areas.

Contract duration is estimated at 1,095 calendar days.

The estimated cost range is between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000. NAICS code is 236220.

A PLA is defined as a pre-hire collective bargaining agreement with one or more labor organizations that establishes the terms and conditions of employment for a specific construction project and is an agreement described in 29 U.S.C. 158(f).

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Policy:

1. FAR 22.502 requires agencies to use Project Labor Agreement (PLA) in large-scale construction projects to promote economy and efficiency in the administration and completion of Federal construction projects.

2. An agency may, if appropriate, require that every contractor and subcontractor engaged in construction on the project agree, for that project, to negotiate or become a party to a project labor agreement with one or more labor organizations if the agency decides that the use of project labor agreements will:

1) Advance the Federal Governments interest in achieving economy and efficiency in Federal procurement, producing labor-management stability, and ensuring compliance with laws and regulations governing safety and health, equal employment opportunity, labor and employment standards, and other matters; and

2) Be consistent with law.

References:

Provision: 52.222-33 Notice of Requirement for Project Labor Agreement

Clause: 52.222-34 Project Labor Agreement.

3. In consideration of the above factors, and any others which may be deemed appropriate, the construction community is invited to comment on the use of PLAs. Of particular interest to the Government are responses to the following questions:

• Do you have knowledge that a PLA has been used in the local area on projects of this kind? If so, please provide supporting documentation.


• Are you aware of skilled labor shortages in the area for those crafts that will be needed to complete the referenced project? If so, please elaborate and provide supporting documentation where possible.


• Are you aware of time sensitive issues/scheduling requirements that would affect the rate at which the referenced project should be completed? If so, please elaborate and provide supporting documentation where possible.


• Identify specific reasons why or how you believe a PLA would advance the Federal Government’s interest in achieving economy and efficiency in Federal procurement.


• Identify specific reasons why you do not believe a PLA would advance the Federal Government’s interest in achieving economy and efficiency in Federal procurement.


• Identify any additional information you believe should be considered on the use of a PLA on the referenced project.


• Identify any additional information you believe should be considered on the non-use of a PLA on the referenced project.

  • Number of craft trades present on the project
  
  
  • Was a PLA used?
  
  
  • Were there any challenges experienced during the project?
  
  
  
  


• Please select one of the following:
  
  
  
  • My company will not submit a proposal if PLA is required.
  
  
  • My company plans to submit a proposal whether PLA is required or not.
  
  
  • My company only plans to submit a proposal if PLA is required.

Please provide a response with feedback including rationale for not wanting to submit a proposal and any recommendations that could promote interest.
