We just finished quoting a prevailing wage job and here in MI it works out to be about 33.00/hr, which means I would have to pay my guys about 12.00/hr more than normal. So when quoting I worked it both ways on the labor, one at the normal billout and one 12.00 more per hour. this was an open bid format, so all bids were posted and all the other contractors were clustered at the lower price, except us, we used the higher billout. after talking to one of the contractors he said they dont actually pay their guys the higher rate. Isnt there supposed to be an agency governing this stuff? Has anyone else come accross this?
