USACE Louisville District Issues Another PLA Survey For School Project at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. Respond by Jan. 17.

0 January 10, 2013  Federal Construction

The USACE Louisville District has issued another survey requesting feedback from the construction industry about a government-mandated project labor agreement (PLA) for a large scale project at Fort Campbell, Ky. This survey concerns a PLA for the construction of a two-story elementary school.

TheTruthAboutPLAs.com encourages the merit shop contracting community to respond to this PLA survey. Tell the USACE that government-mandated PLAs reduce competition, increase costs, and impede the economy and efficiency of government contracting.

Survey responses should be sent to Chris Brackett at [email protected]by COB Thursday, Jan. 17.

For more information or assistance responding to the PLA survey, contact us here.

USACE and other federal agencies have issued dozens of similar surveys requesting information about the potential use of PLAs on specific construction projects across the country as a result of regulations and federal agency policies stemming from President Obama’s pro-government-mandated PLA Executive Order 13502, which encourages federal agencies to mandate PLAs on a case-by-case basis for federal construction projects exceeding $25 million in total cost.

TheTruthAboutPLAs.com has taken the opportunity to respond to all PLA surveys as they are issued and encourages the merit shop contracting community to do the same. Responding with accurate and timely information is critical and effective at creating more work for qualified merit shop contractors and their skilled employees.
