Helping Washington Contractors Secure More Public Works Contracts

Compliance is Costing You More Than You Think

If you’re a Washington public works contractor, you already know how complex L&I-certified payroll, prevailing wages, and Davis-Bacon regulations can be.

Compliance isn’t optional

❌ Payroll errors lead to L&I fines, project delays, and lost bids.
❌ Misclassified employees create costly wage disputes.
❌ Manual payroll tracking eats up hours of your time.
❌ Unprepared records put you at risk during audits.

The reality is, compliance isn’t optional—it’s what keeps your projects running and your business profitable.
