The Risk

Compliance isn't a paperwork problem. It's a margin problem.

Three exposures quietly drain profit on every public works job.

01 / 03BACK‑PAY

One missed determination eats the margin.

Misclassified scopes and sub‑tier oversights surface months later — straight out of profit.

↳ Six‑figure clawbacks on closed projects.

02 / 03RETAINAGE

Cash you earned, sitting elsewhere.

Release stalls when payrolls, fringe statements, and apprentice ratios don’t reconcile.

↳ 60–180 days past substantial completion.

03 / 03AUDIT CHAOS

A wage investigation puts the team on defense.

Discovery pulls your PMs off operations. Compliance software is a record, not judgment.

↳ Disrupts every active project at once.
