Expert Managed Services for Prevailing Wage and Certified Payroll Compliance
Managing prevailing wage and union wage compliance is complex. Our dedicated team handles it for you, from rate sourcing to report submission, so you can focus on your business.
Here's What We Handle
Rate Sourcing and Management
Determining the right prevailing wage rates for your workforce is often the most challenging part of compliance. Our team sources the latest rates from the relevant governing agencies for the specific counties, classifications, and projects your workforce covers. We build and maintain rate tables tailored to your employees, work classifications, and projects, and proactively monitor for rate changes so you are never caught off guard.
- Source current prevailing wage rates by county and classification
- Build and maintain rate tables at the project, role, or employee level
- Monitor for rate changes and update your tables proactively
- Manage rate requirements across multiple jurisdictions
Report Generation and Submission
After each payroll, we produce the required certified payroll reports in the exact formats needed for your agencies and compliance portals. No more wrestling with your payroll system to generate obscure report templates. We submit reports electronically on your behalf, including to DIR, LCPtracker, and E-Mars, using your login credentials and applying electronic signatures where required. Once complete, we provide confirmation summaries by pay period so you always know where things stand.

Compliance rules change constantly. Our managed services team stays on top of regulatory updates, flags any issues with report submissions, and provides guidance to keep you in good standing. We handle the details so you can focus on running your business.

Custom Compliance Calculations
Some compliance scenarios require calculation logic that standard payroll systems are not built to handle. We scope and build custom calculation support tailored to each client's specific requirements, whether that means calculating remaining cash fringe after benefit deductions, handling overtime fringe scenarios, or producing weekly fringe reports by employee. Common examples of the custom calculations our team manages include:
- Davis-Bacon fringe calculations accounting for Health and Welfare, Vacation, PTO, Dental, and other benefits by state
- Overtime fringe calculations when all benefits and training costs factor into overtime
- Weekly fringe amount calculations that convert benefit costs into hourly fringe rates
- Pension contribution calculations based on total fringes with remaining balances allocated by work class
- Fringe and pension reporting that determines excess versus required pension amounts and produces weekly reports by employee
