Why The Contractors Plan

Designed for prevailing wage contractors, built for results

The Contractors Plan is the premier provider of prevailing wage health and retirement plans tailored exclusively for government-funded contractors. We built the first bona fide retirement plan approved by the Department of Labor for merit-shop contractors to comply with prevailing wage obligations, and our systems are built around the regulatory burdens contractors face, from Davis-Bacon Act construction work to Service Contract Act service work.

Few firms work where ERISA, prevailing wage determinations, health benefits, retirement plans, annualization, PTO and each state's own rules all meet. That intersection is where contractors get tripped up, and it is the work we do every day.
