Collective Training Barracks, McGregor Range Camp, New Mexico for Fort Bliss, Texas

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Fort Worth District has issued a Special Notice regarding a potential Project Labor Agreement (PLA) for a large-scale construction project at McGregor Range Camp in New Mexico for Fort Bliss, Texas. The project involves constructing four collective training barracks, each measuring 34,302 square feet, totaling 137,208 square feet of new facility space. The barracks complex will include primary facilities such as fire pump buildings, overhead protection, building information systems, fire protection, video surveillance, cybersecurity measures, and energy monitoring control systems. Supporting infrastructure will encompass site development, utilities, lighting, parking, walkways, drainage systems, landscaping, and signage. This Special Notice is specifically a market survey seeking input from the construction community about potential PLA implementation for this project.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to gather industry feedback on the potential use of Project Labor Agreements for a construction project exceeding $35 million. Contractors are invited to submit comments and insights via email to Contract Specialist Kristi Morris and Contracting Officer Matthew Dickson by 2:00 p.m. on June 30, 2025. While no specific eligibility criteria are outlined, the survey appears open to construction firms with relevant experience in large-scale institutional building projects. The notice emphasizes that this is not a request for proposal, quote, or bid, and no solicitation specifications or drawings will be available at this time. Interested parties are encouraged to provide detailed feedback about local PLA experiences, skilled labor availability, scheduling requirements, and potential advantages or disadvantages of implementing a Project Labor Agreement for this military construction project.
