About this file
This is a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) questionnaire designed to gather stakeholder input regarding the potential implementation of a PLA on a federal construction project.
The questionnaire consists of seven questions directed at government entities, unions, contractors (both union and non-union), and qualified small businesses. Question 1 requests identification of the respondent's organizational type. Question 2 asks whether the project involves specialized construction with limited contractor availability. Question 3 seeks information about local labor market conditions, including the availability of union and non-union labor and any known interest from either sector in participating. Question 4 addresses contractor interest in project participation and whether a PLA requirement would influence their decision to bid. Question 5 inquires about prior PLA usage on similar construction projects in the area. Question 6 requests a comparison between union wage rates and prevailing wage rates under the Construction Wage Rates Requirements statute (formerly the Davis-Bacon Act). Question 7 asks respondents to identify potential cost impacts associated with PLA implementation. The questionnaire is a template without specific project details, response deadlines, or award information populated.
