About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) Questionnaire designed to solicit feedback from stakeholders regarding the potential use of a PLA on a federal construction project.

The questionnaire comprises seven questions directed at government entities, unions, contractors (both union and non-union), and qualified small businesses. The questions seek detailed responses on: the respondent's organizational capacity; whether the project involves specialized construction with limited contractor availability; the local availability of union and non-union labor and awareness of interest from either sector; the respondent's interest in project participation and how a PLA requirement would affect that interest; prior experience with PLAs on similar projects in the area; a comparison of union wage rates to prevailing wage rates under the Construction Wage Rates Requirements statute (formerly the Davis-Bacon Act); and potential cost implications of implementing a PLA requirement. The document is a template questionnaire with blank response fields, issued in Revision 2 as of June 3, 2025. It serves as a solicitation tool to gather market intelligence and stakeholder input to inform the government's decision regarding PLA implementation prior to formal contract solicitation.
