The Contractor’s Guide to the Davis-Bacon Act: Essential Knowledge for Bidding and Compliance on Prevailing Wage Jobs

Nathaniel Peniston

Over the last decade, I have spoken with countless contractors who wanted to learn more about government-funded prevailing wage construction. How did the Davis-Bacon Act come to exist? What are the most comment hurdles that trip up contractors? How do I become familiar with so much terminology that it almost seems like learning another language? Well, this book is the answer, to those questions and many others. As Steve Antill, Chief Revenue Officer at Foundation Software, wrote in his foreword, Nat’s goal was to break down the text of the Act - and explain all of its subsequent requirements and nuances - in an easily digestible, yet incredibly thorough, thesis on the Davis-Bacon Act and all of the complexities that come along with it.

Nathaniel Peniston has assembled a nice guide that should be added to the resource library of construction companies performing work on prevailing wage projects. Prevailing wage laws have very complex and rigorous compliance requirements. There are extraordinary burdens in performing and documenting the work effort which are unique to each jurisdiction. Contractors performing this work need to be well informed and have a team of experts and counsel to ensure strict adherence to the rules.
