This year marks the 70th anniversary of the enactment of the Davis-Bacon Act. So, what has changed in 70 years? While the law itself hasn’t changed much, the administration of the law has changed significantly, causing concern for many contractors with federal and federally assisted construction contracts. Davis-Bacon wage rates are increasing and so are the Department of Labor’s audit and enforcement efforts. This advanced-level, two-part webinar will explain to federal construction contractors how things are changing and how you can safeguard your company from risks arising under Davis-Bacon Act today.

Lean Construction is driven to minimize costs and maximize value on each project completed, challenging all stakeholders to develop and apply better ways to manage the overall construction process. Everyone related to the construction process has incentive to get the project done faster and at a lower cost — from the project owners who want to see tangible results for their investment to designers and contractors who want to do their job well and move on to the next project.
