    Description

    The Department of Defense, through the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Southeast, is seeking public feedback on a design-build construction project aimed at replacing waterfront transformers and enhancing the electrical distribution system at Naval Station Mayport in Florida. The project involves demolishing an existing substation vulnerable to storm surge flooding and constructing a new elevated facility to meet the shore power requirements for various naval ships, with an estimated cost between $25 million and $100 million and a performance period of approximately 2,560 calendar days. This initiative aligns with Executive Order 14063, which promotes the use of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) for large-scale federal construction projects, and interested parties are invited to provide insights via a questionnaire regarding the potential impacts of PLAs on project costs and labor availability. Responses are due by 2:00 PM ET on June 12, 2025, and should be submitted to Deborah Torrence at deborah.d.torrence2.civ@us.navy.mil.

    The Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Southeast is requesting public feedback on the potential use of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) for the construction project aimed at replacing waterfront transformers and enhancing the electrical distribution system at several substations in Florida. This project includes demolishing an existing substation and constructing a new elevated facility to meet shore power requirements for naval ships. The project is anticipated to cost between $25 million and $100 million and will follow a design-build model with a performance period of approximately 2,560 days. Interested parties are invited to provide insights via a questionnaire on topics such as the availability of skilled labor, potential impacts of a PLA on project costs, and prior use of PLAs in similar projects. The RFI, a market survey rather than a solicitation, aims to gather information while emphasizing that participation does not obligate the government to award a contract. This initiative aligns with Executive Order 14063, which encourages the use of PLAs for large-scale federal construction projects. Responses are due by June 12, 2025, and will be treated confidentially.
