About this file
The document is a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) Questionnaire for the Child Development Center construction project at Fort Jackson, SC (Solicitation Number W912HP26RA013). The questionnaire is designed to gather contractor insights on the potential implementation of a Project Labor Agreement for this construction project, which is valued between $25 million and $100 million. The PLA would require contractors and subcontractors to negotiate or become party to a collective bargaining agreement with labor organizations.
The questionnaire seeks contractor perspectives on seven key areas, including familiarity with PLAs, likelihood of proposal submission, potential cost impacts, competition restrictions, subcontractor resistance, and proposal preparation time. The project aims to construct an Army standard design large-size Child Development Center to accommodate 338 children aged 6 weeks to 5 years and 66 staff members, totaling 404 anticipated occupants. The new facility will replace the current Scales Avenue CDC and includes administrative spaces, activity rooms, outside play areas, supporting facilities, site development, utilities, and perimeter security devices.

Project Labor Agreement Questionnaire
Project Labor Agreement (PLA) Questionnaire
W912HP26RA013
Child Development Center at Ft. Jackson, SC
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) 22.503 Policy:
(a) Project Labor Agreement (PLA) is a tool that agencies may use to promote economy and efficiency in Federal procurement. Pursuant to Executive Order 13502, agencies are encouraged to consider requiring the use of project labor agreements in connection with large-scale construction projects.
(b) 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 Government's 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.
(c) Agencies may also consider the following factors in deciding whether the use of a project labor agreement is appropriate for the construction project:
(1) The project will require multiple construction contractors and/or subcontractors employing workers in multiple crafts or trades.
(2) There is a shortage of skilled labor in the region in which the construction project will be sited.
(3) Completion of the project will require an extended period of time.
(4) Project labor agreements have been used on comparable projects undertaken by Federal, State, municipal, or private entities in the geographic area of the project.
(5) A project labor agreement will promote the agency’s long term program interests, such as facilitating the training of a skilled workforce to meet the agency’s future construction needs.
(6) Any other factors that the agency decides are appropriate.
See FAR Provision: 52.222-33 Notice of Requirement for Project Labor Agreement and FAR Clause 52.222-34 Project Labor Agreement for further details.
