About this file
This is a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) Questionnaire template designed to gather information from contractors, government entities, unions, and small businesses regarding their experience and perspective on implementing a PLA for a construction project.
The questionnaire consists of seven questions addressing key aspects of PLA implementation. Question 1 requests identification of the respondent's entity type. Questions 2 and 3 seek information about the specialized nature of the construction work and the availability of union and non-union labor in the geographic area, including awareness of industry interest in participating. Question 4 determines whether qualified contractors would be interested in participating in the project and specifically assesses whether a PLA requirement would impact their interest or willingness to submit a proposal. Question 5 asks respondents to identify their awareness of PLA usage on similar construction projects in the area or nearby regions. Question 6 requests a detailed comparison between union wage rates and prevailing wage rates established under the Construction Wage Rates Requirements statute (formerly the Davis-Bacon Act) for the project type and geographic area. Question 7 asks respondents to identify potential cost increases that may result from PLA requirements. The template provides a structured format with Questions and Responses columns, allowing respondents to detail their understanding and experience with labor agreements in their respective markets.
