About this file

This document is a request for information regarding the potential use of a Project Labor Agreement for the renovation of a naval air station hospital in Jacksonville, Florida. The project involves repair and reconstruction of an existing 39,000 square foot multi-level facility housing the galley, emergency department, pharmacy, and other clinical spaces. The renovation is expected to take place while ongoing hospital operations continue and last approximately 1,280 calendar days. The Navy is soliciting feedback on an attached questionnaire from both union and non-union contractors regarding the impact of requiring a PLA, comparisons of union and prevailing wage rates for the area, and potential cost implications. Responses are due no later than February 2, 2024 and will be used to determine whether to pursue an exception to the mandatory use of a PLA for this large-scale federal construction project valued between $25-100 million.
