Presentation Descriptions: The federal Davis Bacon and related acts impact all federal construction in the State of Nevada including projects receiving federal grant funds. Nevada also has its own version, or mini Davis Bacon Act that applies to all public works projects in the state. Together these laws create a pervasive prevailing wage rate system that regulates hourly wages and wide variety of fringe benefits. How these wages are determined, how they can be changed, how contracts can be modified to reflect their changes, and how collective bargaining agreements can impact the entire structures are just some of the issues to be discussed during this part of the presentation.
Every company that sells or develops technology under contract with the federal government should know the scope and impact of federal data rights clauses, including notable recent and anticipated changes to the data rights requirements. Likewise, every company that processes or stores controlled or confidential information received under contract with the federal government should understand data security requirements now appearing federal contracts.
