Prevailing Wage Bidding

Just wondering if any of you fine folks have ever put in a bid on a prevailing wage job. I've had an offer to put in a bid on a small 20k sq ft rec center in a city. We are non-union so I"m not sure if we can even bid?? I"ve already done google for dummies on prevailing wage job steps and it looks like a paperwork and rules nighmare. I thought these things were already locked up anyhow, so I'm betting we have no chance in getting the bid.

Any comments, suggestions, opinions, experiences with this??

I'm pretty sure bonding is involved and they can ask to see your payroll slips at any time.
I did one,years ago.
Used a friend's Company to run it through for bonding.
They were reimbersed for their expenses,and handled all the paperwork.
It was good money,but at a time when things were busy.
Probably be a lot of compitition now and a lot more scrutiny from other bidders,so have your I's dotted and your T's crossed.
