9. Senate Bill 854.
SB 854 bill signed into law on June 20, 2014, established a new public works contractor registration program to replace prior Compliance Monitoring Unit (CMU) and Labor Compliance Program (LCP) requirements for bond -funded and other specified public works projects. The Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) requires all contractors and subcontractors who bid or perform work on a public works project (as defined under the Labor Code) be subject to a registration and annual renewal fee.
Contractors must apply online and meet minimum qualifications to be registered as eligible to bid and work on public works projects. The requirement to list only registered contractors and subcontractors on bids becomes effective on March 1, 2015. The requirement to only use registered contractors and subcontractors on public works projects applies to all projects awarded on or aft er April 1, 2015. This project shall comply with the requirement of SB 854.
Coverage is not limited only to work performed at the construction site by the traditional construction trades, but extends broadly to workers employed “in the execution of” the public works contract.
Survey and Geotechnical Services will only need to register if the scope of services provided would require the payment of prevailing wage and be considered to be covered under the California Labor Code. Even though survey and geotec hnical services typically are viewed as consultants and generally do not necessarily fit the term “contractor,” compliance with section SB 854 will be required by the Department of Industrial Relations ("DIR"). Essentially, if the services provided by a survey or geotechnical services firm would be considered to be covered under the applicable California Labor Code sections, then they should register. It should be noted that only the firm needs to register and not individual licensed design professional(s).
Attention is directed to the revisions to Labor Code Section 4. 1725.5 and Section 5. 1771.1:
A. SECTION 4 1725.5
“A contractor (consultant) must be registered pursuant to this section in order to be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal pursuant to Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work that is subject to requirements of this chapter. (a) To qualify for registration under this section, a contractor must do all of the following:
(1) Beginning July 1, 2014, register with the Department of Industrial Relations in the manner prescribed by the department and pay an initial non -refundable application fee of $300 to qualify for registration under this section and an annual renewal fee on or before July 1st each year thereafter. The annual renewal fee shall be in a uniform amount set by the Director of Industrial Relations, and the initial registration and renewal fees may be adjusted no more than annually by the director to support the costs specified in Section 1771.3. (2) Provide such evidence, disclosures, or releases as are necessary to establish all of the following:
(A) Worker’s Compensation coverage that meets the requirements of Division 4 (commencing with Section 3200) and includes sufficient coverage for any worker who the contractor will employ to perform work that is subject to prevailing wage requirements other than a contractor who, is separately registered under this section.

However, for any judgment, order, or determination that is under appeal, provided that the contractor has secured the payment of any amoun t eventually found due through a bond or other appropriate means.
(D) The contractor is not currently debarred under Section 1777.1 or under any other federal or state law providing for the debarment of contractors from public works.

(d) A contractor who fails to pay the renewal fee required under paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) on or before the expiration of any prior period of registration shall be prohibited from bidding on or engaging in the performance of any contract for public work until once again registered pursuant to this section. A contractor who inadvertently fails to pay the renewal fee may retroactively renew its registration by paying an additional non-refundable penalty renewal fee equal to the amount of the renewal fee within 90 days of the date of the renewal fee. (e) The requirements of this section shall not apply with respect to any contract, which as a result of a determination by the Director of Industrial Relations pursuant to Section 1773.5 or decision by a court that classifies, after the time at which the body awarding the contract accepts the contractor’s bid or awards the contractor a contract, the work covered by the bid or contract as a “public work,” as defined in this chapter, to which Section 1771 applies, provided that:
- 5 -
(1) The body awarding the contract failed to identify as a public work, in the bid specification or in the contract documents that portion of the work that the determination or decision classifies as a “public work.”
(2) Within twenty (20) days following service of notice on the awarding body of a determination by the Director of Industrial Relations pursuant to Section 1773.5 or a decision by a court that the contract was for public work as defined in this ch apter, the contractor and any subcontractors are registered under this section or are replaced by a contractor or subcontractors who are registered under this section. (3) The requirements of this section shall apply prospectively only to any bid, bid proposal, contract, or work performed after the awarding body is served with notice of the determination or decision referred to in paragraph (2) of this subdivision. (f) The requirements of this section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after M arch 1, 2015, and any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, entered into on or after April 1, 2015.”
B. SECTION 5 1771.1
(a) No contractor or subcontractor shall be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal pursuant to Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, unless currently registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 It shall not be a violation of this section for an unregistered contractor to submit a bid that is authorized by Section 7029.1 of the Business and Professions Code or by Sections 10164 or 20103.5 of the public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded.
(b) Notice of this requirement shall be incl uded in all bid invitations and public works contracts, and no bid shall be accepted nor any contract or subcontract entered into without proof of the contractor or subcontractor’s current eligibility to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5.

(1) the subcontractor is registered prior to the bid opening; (2) within 24 hours after the bid opening the subcontractor is registered and has paid the penalty registration fee specified in paragraph (E) of subdivision (2) of Section 1725.5; or ( 3) the subcontractor is replaced by another registered subcontractor pursuant to Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code.

- 6 -
(f) A contract entered into with any contractor or subcontractor in violation of subdivision (a) shall be subject to cancellation.

A. This section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, and any contract for public work entered into on or after April 1, 2015. This project shall comply with the requirements of SB 854.
10. Payment of Prevailing Wage.
A. The State of California, Department of Industrial Relations, has ascertained the general prevailing rate of wages and employer payments for health and welfare, vacation, pension, and similar purposes applicable to the field work to be done. These rates shall be the minimum wage rates for this project. These rates are on file with the City of Lancaster and copies will be made available to any interested party upon request.
Attention is directed to the provisions of Section 1777.5 (Chapter 1411, Statutes of 1968) and Section 1777.6 of the Labor Code concerning the employment of apprentices by the CONSULTANT or any subcontractor under him.
Section 1777.5, as amended, requires the CONSULTANT or subcontractor employing tradesmen in any apprenticeable occupation to apply to the joint apprenticeship committee nearest the site of the public works project and which administers the apprenticeship program in that trade for a certificate of approval.
The certificate will also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used in the performance of the contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in such cases shall not be less than one to five except:
(A) When unemployment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship committee has exceeded an average of 15% in the 90 days prior to the request for certificate; or (B) When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of one to five; or (C) When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis statewide or locally; or (D) When the CONSULTANT provides evidence that he employs registered apprentices on all of his contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen.
The CONSULTANT is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship programs if he employs registered apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such contracts and if other Contractors on the public works site are making such contributions.
The CONSULTANT and any subcontractor under them shall comply with the requirements of Section 1777.5 and Section 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices.
Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules, and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices. - 7 -

The proposal schedule outlined in the project RFQ
description, is the most challenging aspect of this project.
It will take clear concise communication and a structured kick-off meeting that aligns all stakeholders in a schedule consensus. The Design team understand the need for
occupancy in March of 2025, and is tasked with success.
This project will take a bit of an unconventional approach to the document set, due of the schedule. Rather than a standard design phases outlined by the AIA, the team is proposing a single BID Document / Permit Phase (after a concept option at the end of January 2024 is selected), with appropriated phases – 35% / 75% / 100%. During
the Submittal Book Supplement, geotechnical and survey
services will be performed. At the conclusion of 100%
Permit / Bid Documents, an overlapped process of permitting with the City of Lancaster (design team) and the Bid
Advertisement, Bidding, and Contract Award (owner, assist from the design team) will occur – rather than sequentially phase those steps. The design will provide Construction Administrative and Project Close-out, which would consist in Certificate of Occupancy, Record Drawings, and turn-over.
NBBJ’s track record on managing schedules, is the
differentiator. Internally, we call it “appropriate haste” – as we want to make the right decisions while moving at pace.
This process goes back to our clear concise communication and stakeholder transparency. T ools, like our decision matrix, process design, and structured meeting organization, are all utlized on many of our successful phase projects with challenging construction requirements.
