How can I obtain the latest SCA and/or DBA wage determinations (WDs) from beta.SAM.gov?
Short Answer: Search for Wage Determinations on SAM.gov by contract type, location, or keyword.
Full Answer: To obtain the latest Service Contract Act (SCA) and Davis-Bacon Act (DBA) wage determinations (WDs) on SAM.gov (previously beta.SAM.gov), follow these steps:
Click on “Search Wage Determinations” under the Wage Determinations section.
Use the search filters to find the appropriate WDs:
For SCA: Select “Service Contract” and enter the state, county, or job category.
For DBA: Select “Construction” and specify the location and type of construction (e.g., building, highway).
Review the search results and click on the relevant WD to view wage rates, fringe benefits, and work rules.
Download or print the WD for compliance.
Tip: You can also use the “Keyword Search” to find WDs by contract number or job title. Registering for a SAM.gov account allows you to save searches and get email alerts for updates.
General Federal Standard: Federal contractors must use the most current WDs issued by the U.S. Department of Labor for compliance with the SCA and DBA.
