Public projects come with requirements private work does not: formal procurement, prevailing wage, certified payroll, and documentation that has to hold up to an audit.
Standard Building Company is experienced in prevailing wage, Davis-Bacon, and public procurement requirements for municipal, county, and federal construction projects, and serves government agencies across Northern Colorado with full compliance documentation and reporting.
Public project types
- Municipal buildings and renovations
- Public safety and maintenance facilities
- Parks, recreation, and site improvements
- School and campus projects
- Accessibility and code upgrades
- Utility and infrastructure work
Compliance and documentation
Federally funded work carries Davis-Bacon wage requirements, and state-funded public projects in Colorado above the statutory threshold carry prevailing wage requirements of their own. We track wage determinations, collect certified payroll from every tier of subcontractor, and keep submittals, RFIs, and daily reports in order from start to closeout.
Working on public sites
Public buildings rarely close for construction. We plan phasing, security, and public access with the agency so the facility keeps serving people while the work gets done.
How a project runs
- 01
Scope and budget
We walk the site or review the drawings with you, define the scope, and build a budget and schedule you can make decisions from.
- 02
Pre-construction
Constructability review, subcontractor pricing, long-lead procurement, and permit submittals happen before anyone mobilizes.
- 03
Construction
One superintendent runs the job. You get a schedule, regular updates, and a clear paper trail on every change.
- 04
Closeout
Punch list, final inspections, certificate of occupancy, and a complete turnover package with warranties and as-builts.
