LDCO brings extensive experience delivering construction projects for municipalities, government agencies, housing authorities, and public institutions while navigating the complex federal, state, and local requirements that govern public works construction.
Our team understands the compliance requirements that extend well beyond construction in the field, including prevailing wage and labor compliance, certified payroll reporting, wage classifications and fringe benefits, apprenticeship requirements, DAS 140 and DAS 142 reporting, training fund contributions, Project Labor Agreements, workforce and local-hire requirements, and union coordination where applicable.
We are also experienced with funding-driven requirements such as Davis-Bacon, HUD Section 3, Buy America and Build America, Buy America requirements, as well as SLBE, ELBE, SBE, DBE, and other contract-specific participation and reporting programs.
LDCO is experienced in Job Order Contracting, IDIQ, task-order delivery, and cooperative purchasing programs, including Sourcewell.
Our team is familiar with RSMeans-based estimating, pre-priced and non-pre-priced line items, adjustment factors, quantity takeoffs, competitive quotations, scope development, and fixed-price task-order proposals. We also understand the unique administrative and pricing requirements associated with cooperative and competitively procured contract vehicles, allowing public agencies to efficiently procure construction services under established contract terms.
Our experience also includes unit-price contracting, change-order development, force-account and time-and-material documentation,
schedules of values, pay applications, retention, certified labor documentation, and the detailed recordkeeping required throughout the life of a public project.
From bidding and preconstruction through construction, labor compliance, payment, and closeout, LDCO understands the procedures,
documentation, specifications, and accountability required to successfully deliver public works projects. Our familiarity with agency standards, including GREENBOOK and City of San Diego WHITEBOOK requirements, allows us to anticipate compliance issues early, maintain accurate documentation, and keep projects moving efficiently from award through final completion.
