Prevailing wage software for contractors

Yes. Miter generates certified payroll reports directly from your payroll data, including the WH-347 form required under Davis-Bacon and state-specific certified payroll forms for CA, CT, DE, IL, MA, MI, NY, NJ, OR, PA, RI, and WA.

Once your prevailing wage project is set up in Miter with the correct wage determinations and trade classifications, certified payroll reports auto-populate with each worker’s name, classification, regular and overtime hours, gross wages, fringe benefit contributions, and deductions.

Reports are generated per project and per pay period and can be submitted directly to state government portals or uploaded to systems like LCPtracker, eComply, Elation Systems, and eMars (Michigan).

Yes. Miter supports multiple prevailing wage projects running simultaneously, each with its own wage determinations and trade classifications. When workers are assigned to a project, Miter applies the correct prevailing wage rates for that job.

If a worker splits time between a prevailing wage jobsite and a non-prevailing wage jobsite in the same pay period, Miter tracks hours separately and applies the right rate for each. This avoids the rate confusion that comes with managing multiple public works projects at once.

Yes. Miter has mobile apps for both iOS and Android. Field workers can clock in and out from their phones, and Miter applies the correct prevailing wage classification based on which project they are clocking into — either automatically from a pre-assigned classification or by prompting the worker to select their trade at clock-in. Foremen can also manage crew time from the app.

All field time syncs to payroll and certified payroll reporting in Miter, so the office does not need to manually re-enter hours from paper timesheets.

Yes. Unlike most prevailing wage tools that act as a reporting layer on top of QuickBooks or another payroll system, Miter runs full payroll for construction companies. That means prevailing wage rates, fringe benefit contributions, and certified payroll reports are all produced from the same payroll run. Labor costs also flow directly into job costing in Miter, so project managers can see the real cost of prevailing wage work against their project budgets without pulling data from two different systems.

Miter runs payroll natively, so most contractors do not need QuickBooks for payroll. Miter integrates with QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop, along with the other top construction accounting software, for job cost exports and general ledger sync.

If your team uses QuickBooks for accounting, Miter can push payroll and job cost data to your books after each payroll run. For contractors who want to run prevailing wage payroll and certified payroll reporting in Miter while keeping their accounting in QuickBooks, this integration keeps both systems aligned.

The best prevailing wage software for construction depends on who it’s built for. Most tools on the market are either government-agency platforms or add-ons to accounting software. Miter is purpose-built for construction contractors, GCs, and subs. It combines prevailing wage setup, trade classification, certified payroll reporting, and full payroll processing in one platform.

Field crews clock in from the jobsite, prevailing wage rates apply automatically, and certified payroll reports generate from the same payroll run. No reconciliation. No separate tools.
