Service Overview

Public-sector work has its own paperwork.

Government and public-sector electrical contracting is not just regular work with a higher bill rate. There’s certified payroll every week, Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance, fringe-benefit accounting, OSHA documentation, project close-out packages tailored to each agency’s audit standards, and minority-business-enterprise reporting. We’re built for it.

We do prevailing-wage electrical work for city, county, state, and federal accounts in the East Tennessee region. Public schools, municipal buildings, county facilities, state-owned properties, and federal-property work that subcontracts through prime contractors. The work itself is standard commercial electrical — what’s different is the documentation chain.

For every public-sector project we run, we maintain weekly certified payroll filing in WH-347 format, fringe-benefit accounting to the published prevailing-wage determination, project documentation packages with daily reports and material logs, OSHA-required job-site safety documentation, and the agency-specific close-out packages (different for city vs county vs state vs federal). Our paperwork has never delayed a payment cycle.

For smaller public-sector accounts where we’re working directly with the agency, we coordinate with their procurement department on quote format, with their facilities team on schedule, and with their inspection officials on commissioning. For larger projects where we’re a sub to a prime contractor, we deliver our paperwork on the prime’s schedule so the prime can build the full close-out package for the agency.

What’s Included

Government capabilities.

Certified payroll filing

Weekly WH-347 (federal) or state equivalent filing, fringe-benefit accounting to the published prevailing-wage determination, employee classification verification.

Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance

Wages paid per the project-specific Davis-Bacon determination, fringe benefits accounted to the determination rate, posted prevailing-wage notices on the job site.

Project documentation packages

Daily reports, material delivery logs, equipment-on-site logs, safety meeting documentation, photo documentation as required. Built for the agency that’s going to audit it.

Agency-specific close-out

City, county, state, and federal accounts each have specific close-out package requirements — different forms, different signatures, different timelines. We build to each.

OSHA + safety compliance

Required safety documentation, lockout-tagout procedures, confined-space documentation when applicable, electrical safety procedures per NFPA 70E.

Subcontracting under prime contractors

We’re used to working under primes on larger public-sector projects. We deliver our paperwork on the prime’s schedule so they can build the full close-out package without chasing us.

Common Questions

Five things we get asked every week.

Do you handle Davis-Bacon prevailing wage work?
Yes. We do prevailing-wage electrical work for city, county, state, and federal accounts in East Tennessee. Weekly certified payroll, fringe-benefit accounting to the project determination, agency-specific close-out documentation — standard part of our public-sector workflow.
Can you work as a sub under a prime contractor on government projects?
Yes. We subcontract under primes on larger public-sector projects routinely. We deliver paperwork on the prime’s schedule so the prime can build the full close-out package without chasing us for forms, certified payroll, or material logs.
What agencies have you worked for?
County and municipal accounts in Sevier, Knox, and Blount counties; state work through TDOT and TN state-property accounts; some federal subcontracting through primes on national-property work. We’ll provide references and reportable past-performance summaries at quote time.
Do you carry the right insurance for government work?
Yes. General liability with $1M+ per occurrence, worker’s comp meeting Tennessee state requirements, umbrella coverage scalable to project requirements. COIs furnished to your procurement or your prime’s insurance department at award.
How is your pricing structured on prevailing-wage work?

We’re transparent — you see the rate breakdown your auditor needs.
