About this file
This document is a Request for Information (RFI) from the National Park Service (NPS) regarding the use of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) for an upcoming construction project to replace the Grant Wastewater Treatment Plant and rehabilitate the Canyon and Grant Wastewater Collection Systems. The total estimated cost for this project is $25 million or more, triggering the PLA mandate under Executive Order 14063.
The NPS is seeking industry feedback on the use of PLAs, including whether firms have experience with PLAs providing economy and efficiency on prior federal projects, the availability of relevant trade unions to support a PLA, and any potential benefits or challenges with a mandated PLA requirement for this project. The NPS will use this information to draft the solicitation requirements and determine if any exemptions are necessary. Responses to the RFI are requested by September 6, 2024 at 12:00 PM MT.

Subject: YELL 310402 Replace Grant Wastewater Treatment Plant; Rehabilitate Canyon and Grant Wastewater Collection Systems
RE: Market Research for Project Labor Agreement IAW EO 14063
Interested Parties, The NPS is conducting market research for the upcoming project to Replace Grant Wastewater Treatment Plant;
Rehabilitate Canyon and Grant Wastewater Collection Systems. We are currently exploring opportunities related to Executive Order 14063, which promotes the use of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) for Federal Construction Projects. This order was signed on February 4, 2022, and mandates that Federal Government agencies require the use of PLAs for large-scale Federal construction projects, where the total estimated cost to the Government is $25 million or more. The aim is to promote economy and efficiency in the administration and completion of Federal construction projects.
The NPS is interested in understanding the industries’ perspective on this matter in promoting competition among offerors and to fully understand the impact the PLA mandate would have on this requirement. NPS is seeking responses to the following:
1. Has your firm entered into PLAs on other Federal projects where the outcome provided economy or efficiencies to the program?
2. Are the specific trade unions, in the area of this requirement, available to work complete a PLA?
3. Please provide any noted benefits or challenges that maybe encountered from requiring a mandated PLA on this requirement.
The NPS will use this information in drafting the solicitation requirements and justify appropriate exemptions if necessary. Please submit responses or questions to Vicki Freese-Supler at vicki_l_freese-supler@nps.gov and Jeanna Manseau at jeanna_manseau@nps.gov by September 6, 2024, 12:00 PM MT.
