16 Additional Federally Funded Projects Designated
The U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) recently announced that it is scaling up its Mega Construction Project (Megaproject) Program by designating 16 additional federally funded construction projects as megaprojects. OFCCP launched the Megaproject Program in March 2023. Megaprojects are large federal construction projects valued at $35 million or more – some part of which must be federal funding – and that last more than one year.
For the 16 newly designated megaprojects, OFCCP partnered with the Department of Commerce, Department of Energy, Department of the Interior, Department of Transportation and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The agency applied a set of neutral criteria to designate megaprojects from a wider pool of eligible projects. These newly designated projects build on OFCCP’s designation last year of 24 megaprojects funded by the Department of Transportation, Department of Energy, Environmental Protection Agency, and General Services Administration.
The new, FY24 Mega Construction Designees Release 2 list of designated projects and selection methodology are available on OFCCP’s website at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/ofccp/scheduling-list.
