35-Percent Points North Software Discount for Post-Sandy Rebuilding

Catastrophe risk modeling firm EQECAT says total damage from Hurricane Sandy could be up to $50 billion, second only to Hurricane Katrina. But the billions of dollars of government money that will flow to contractors for rebuilding come with strings attached. The Davis-Bacon act requires contractors receiving government money to fill out forms proving they paid prevailing wages.
 
Software company Points North offers a product that automates this process and includes up-to-date necessary state and federal forms (like the Federal WH-347 or the New Jersey EEO Monthly Workforce Report AA-202). Since many East Coast contractors are taking on government work for the first time, the company is offering a 35% discount on implementation fees for all storm-related projects.
 
“Our offer is to help the companies who are out there doing this, especially those doing certified payroll reporting for the first time,” CEO and President John Foucault  says. “Now they can concentrate on getting the work done.”
 
The offer is open to any contractor or subcontractor doing Sandy-related rebuilding work, even if they’ve done certified payroll reporting before. There are three ways to use Certified Payroll Reporting. Contractors already using large payroll providers like Paychex, Ceridian, KTBS, and STG can import their payroll file and easily view the correct forms filled out and ready to sign. Contractors who don’t have a payroll file can quickly enter the data into a simple interface. And for very time-strapped contractors, Points North will fill out the forms at an hourly rate.
 
“This offer stands as long as there’s work for Hurricane Sandy,” Foucault says.
