NYC Comptroller
Compliance — what it controls, and what it wants from youOffice of the New York City Comptroller does not build anything and does not award construction contracts. It is the wage schedules, contract registration and oversight, and it controls prevailing-wage schedules, labor-law information, City contract registration and payment oversight. That makes it a gate rather than a customer: get it wrong and the job you wanted is gone before anyone reads your number.
Who this applies to
All public-work contractors and subcontractors.
What you have to do
No bid registration role; contractors must use the correct wage schedule and classifications.
What firms get wrong
Use the schedule attached to the contract and confirm effective dates and trade classifications.
Rates by trade and county: the wage matrix.

This is a plain-language guide to a public rule, not legal advice. The controlling text is the rule itself and the contract you signed.
The rest of the rules: how to bid in New York. The owners who actually award the work: agencies.
