Contractor User Guide Overview

Here at LCPtracker (Labor Compliance Program Tracker), we are aware that using a Prevailing Wage software may be a new undertaking for many Contractors. We have designed this guide to explain what LCPtracker is used for and how to start using the software.

LCPtracker has been in business since 2001, and we are constantly changing to better suit your labor compliance needs. LCPtracker is used by over 500 clients including Government Agencies and Prime Contractors.

LCPtracker is an online, cloud-based software company that provides users with the proper tools to easily assist in validating that each Contractor is meeting prevailing wage guidelines as well as to easily create the detailed reports that can be required by agencies like the United States Army Core of Engineers (USACE) or the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).

Whether it is Davis-Bacon laws that are set by the United States Department of Labor (USDOL), California prevailing wages set by the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR), or any other labor laws set by a specific State or local government Agency, LCPtracker makes it easy to assist Agencies and Prime Contractors with their labor compliance programs. 

How Does LCPtracker Work?                                                                                        

The LCPtracker service is a paperless, online system for entering Certified Payroll Reports (CPRs). Payroll data may be entered directly into the system or uploaded from major construction accounting systems or payroll programs. This service eliminates the need for Contractors to submit paper documents and forms while providing an online database that stores all CPRs.

All contract-specific Wage Rates, Fringe Rates and Worker Crafts/Classifications are online within the system, and Contractors may then select Craft/Classifications from a drop-down menu. Potential errors in Wage Rates or Work Classification entries can be flagged to Contractors preemptively, allowing them to submit data with corrections implemented. (This is contingent on how the Administrator set up their Project validations.) Once you have submitted your CPR, an electronic version will be available, and you will have access to all Contractor reports within LCPtracker.

It is important to understand that the LCPtracker validation rules operate to assist you in your compliance process only insofar as the correct classifications are chosen by the user, and the correct data is entered by the user.

There is no cost to Contractors for this service or for online training. We have a dedicated Support staff available Monday through Friday from 5:00am until 5:30pm PST.
