AWARDING AGENCIES / DEVELOPERS

Awarding Agencies and Developers are required by law and funding requirements to ensure prevailing wage regulations are met on their projects. Penalties and loss of project funding are major risks that would be devastating to both the project and the local community in which it was built for. Alliant minimizes that risk by protecting the integrity of the project through our comprehensive labor compliance oversight services. Our experts take on the burden of State and Federal compliance regulations to ensure a compliant project and protect it from adverse risk.

Project Oversight

Our team will monitor the compliance of all contractors and subcontractors working on your project from the top down. By reviewing weekly Certified Payroll Reports as well as supplemental labor compliance documentation, such as required forms, fringe benefit calculations and wage rate verification, we work to ensure all workers are paid the required prevailing wage rate and regulations are being followed. Alliant also specializes in Section 3, DBE, Skilled & Trained and PLA oversight to supplement our prevailing wage oversight on a project, ensuring overall compliance.

Audits & Assessments

When facing a possible state investigation or federal audit, having a knowledgeable team to on your side to assess the risk can mean the difference between costly penalties and trivial restitution payments.
