About this opportunity
The Department of Energy has issued a Request for Information (RFI) regarding Project Labor Agreement (PLA) feasibility for the California Oregon Transmission Project (COTP) Series Capacitor Replacement Design-Build Project. This Special Notice was posted on November 25, 2025, and represents an informational inquiry rather than a formal solicitation for bids or proposals. The RFI is categorized under power and communication line and related structures construction (NAICS 237130) and falls under the construction of other utilities classification. No specific set-aside provisions have been applied to this opportunity, making it available to all qualified contractors. The deadline for responses to this RFI is December 15, 2025.
The primary objective of this RFI is to gather information and assess the feasibility of implementing a Project Labor Agreement for the upcoming design-build project related to series capacitor replacement on the COTP transmission infrastructure. Interested contractors and industry stakeholders are invited to submit their input by the December 15, 2025 deadline regarding PLA considerations for this initiative. While the RFI does not establish specific eligibility restrictions, contractors with relevant experience in transmission line construction and familiarity with PLA frameworks are well-positioned to provide valuable insights. This information-gathering phase will inform the Department of Energy's planning and decision-making process regarding the eventual design-build contract structure and labor agreement requirements. Responses to this RFI will help establish the foundation for the subsequent formal procurement process for the capacitor replacement project.
