NOTE: THE ORIGINAL PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENT (PLA) SPECIAL NOTICE WAS POSTED UNDER N69450-24-R-0060. This is a request for information/market survey. This is not a request for proposal, request for quote, or an invitation for bid. There will be no solicitation, specification, or drawings available at this time. Naval Facilities Engineering System Command (NAVFAC) Southeast is soliciting comments from the public addressing the potential use of Project Labor Agreements (PLA) for the following construction project. The construction project is to repair runway 15-33 at Barksdale Air Force Base (AFB), Bossier City, Louisiana. Construction may include, but is not limited to, a full-depth reconstruct of pavement sections within the Runway 15 approach, Runway 33 approach, Taxiway Alpha, Taxiway Charlie, Taxiway Delta, and Taxiway Echo 1. Approximate total concrete pavement reconstruction area is 68,500 square yards. The typical proposed concrete pavement section is 24-inches thick, underlain with 12-inches of crushed concrete base course, underlain with chemically stabilized subgrade (cement and lime additive). As part of this project, the existing concrete pavement is required to be crushed, processed, and re-used as base course material. Asphalt pavement mill and overlay and asphalt section full-depth construction is required to accommodate the new concrete pavement geometry. Additionally, the entire length of Runway 1533 is required to be re-striped in accordance with DoD and FAA criteria located in the State of Louisiana. Project will be design-bid-build (DBB). NAICS Code: 237310. The magnitude of construction is anticipated to be $25M - $100M. General period of performance is anticipated to be approximately 540 calendar days. A PLA is defined as a pre-hire collective bargaining agreement with one or more labor organizations that establishes the terms and conditions of employment for a specific construction project and is an agreement as described in 29 U.S.C. 158 (f). Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) policy states: Executive Order (E.O.) 14063, Use of Project Labor Agreements for Federal Construction Projects, requires agencies to use PLAs in large-scale construction projects (defined as a construction projects with a total estimated cost at or above $35M) to promote economy and efficiency in the administration and completion of Federal construction projects. When awarding a contract in connection with a large-scale construction project, agencies shall require use of a PLA for contractors and subcontractors engaged in construction on the project, unless an exception(s) at FAR 22.504(d) applies. Reference is made to: FAR Subpart 22.5 Use of Project Labor Agreements for Federal Construction Projects; provision, FAR 52.222-33 Notice of Requirement for Project Labor Agreement; and to clause, FAR 52.222-34 Project Labor Agreement.
