Q. What if my entity does not have
a labor compliance program (lcp)?
A.
CCMI is approved by the Department of
Industrial Relation as a Third Party
Administrator of Labor Compliance
Programs. By contracting with CCMI
you effectively are using CCMI’s Labor
Compliance Program.
Q. Our entity already has a
labor compliance program (lcp), how does
ccmi work with that?
A. CCMI
can (and does) implement existing LCP’s
for entities with which it contracts.
Q. My project is really small &
was not bid (just a purchase order),
does lcp still apply to me?
A.
All
projects using public funds in excess of
$1,000 must have prevailing wages paid
(even if it is on a purchase order).
However, if the contract between the
Entity and the contractor is less than
$30,000 (NOT the subcontract amount),
then contractors are not required to
submit DAS-140 or DAS-142 Forms.
Q. Do I have to file an annual
report if I use ccmi?
A. CCMI
handles all Annual Reporting issues
unless the Entity has their own Labor
Compliance Program, in which case CCMI
can assist the Entity in preparing their
Annual Report for a nominal fee.
Q. What happens when I get a
request from a 3rd party for payroll
information?
A.
CCMI
handles all 3rd Party
requests. If the entities office
receives a request for payroll, or other
inquiry, simply forward the request to
our office.
Q. What if a project goes
longer than scheduled? What
additional costs are incurred?
A.
CCMI’s
fees are a fixed cost based on the
construction cost of the project. In
most cases CCMI will only increase its
fee to the extent that the change orders
increase the overall work/cost on the
project.
Q. If the public entity
contracts with ccmi, how much
involvement will the entity have in
implementing the lcp?
A.
Minimal.
CCMI will handle the Labor Compliance
portion of the Entities preconstruction
meeting. We will keep you informed
during the course of the project of all
labor compliance issues and work with
the closeout timeline to insure that the
Entity meets all state requirements.
Q. How are labor compliance
findings reported?
A.
CCMI
prepares monthly reports after each
payroll audit. These reports are
forwarded to the Entity and the Prime
Contractor on the project. At the
conclusion on the project, CCMI prepares
all paperwork and submits it to the
California Labor Commissioner to close
out the LCP portion of the project.
