10. Prevailing Wage Requirement It is a requirement for this ITB that Contractors pay prevailing wages as defined under the federal Davis-Bacon Act, 29 CFR Part 5 for the occupational classification(s) and locality or localities in which the work is to be performed. Please see Appendix A for applicable rates.

This ITB requires both the Contractor and subcontractors to maintain policies of employment; to pay wage rates as described in Appendix A and this Section, and to submit certified payrolls using the U.S.

Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division’s Payroll Form WH-347 for all listed and applicable work classifications. Certified payroll and employee sign-in sheets must be submitted to the MCC’s Project Manager with each invoice submitted for payment.

Contractor will pay its workers at rates consistent with the Act, regardless of whether the workers are classified as employees. Contractor shall assure that any persons paid at apprentice rates under the Act are properly classified as apprentices.

Allegations that individuals working on this project are not receiving compensations required by law are considered seriously by MCC. To expedite the resolution of prevailing wage complaints related to this project, MCC has selected the Michigan Fair Contracting Center ("MFCC") as the organization best equipped to expedite any necessary investigations. Any person or entity (the "Complainant") who reasonably believes that a particular contractor, subcontractor, sub-subcontractor, or other person or entity providing labor or services on this Project (each, an "Employer") is not paying prevailing wages as required by the terms of this ITB and applicable law may request in writing for the MFCC to investigate and determine whether proper rates are being paid. MFCC's contact information is PO Box 1081, Birmingham, Michigan, 48012 or 248-836-2770. As a condition precedent to the start of any investigation by the MFCC, the Complainant shall sign a document stating that if the MFCC determines that the Complainant's allegations are meritless, the Complainant shall pay the cost of the audit; said document shall clearly state the cost for such audit. The alleged complaint shall automatically be determined meritless if the Complainant refuses to sign the document.

Every Contractor who is subject to an audit by MFCC shall cooperate and comply fully with all requests, requirements, and inquiries of MFCC. If MFCC determines that the Contractor has violated the applicable prevailing wage law, the Contractor shall pay the cost of the audit and MCC may withhold from such Employer any payments due and owing until the Employer remedies all violations cited by MFCC and/or withhold final payment until the Employer pays for the stated cost of the audit, which was determined in the Complainant's allegation document.

Form Version: 04/24/2024 ITB Construction Bid 4

11. Warranty Requirements Provide a one (1) year warranty on all materials and labor. This warranty should not displace any existing manufacturer’s warranties which must be provided for all applicable products, systems, materials, and equipment.

12. Award Schedule After opening bids, the Procurement Officer will identify the lowest responsive, responsible bid.
