IIJA Federal Projects:
The Accountability Hammer Is Coming.
The Challenge
Inspector General audits are multiplying
Congress appropriated additional IG funding specifically to oversee IIJA spending. Audit teams are examining daily records, not just financial summaries. Your daily reports will be audited.
Davis-Bacon compliance is strictly enforced
Every IIJA project requires Davis-Bacon prevailing wages. The DOL has hired additional investigators specifically for IIJA enforcement. Violations trigger debarment.
DBE and MWBE participation must be documented daily
Disadvantaged Business Enterprise and Minority/Women-owned participation goals must be documented with daily records. Self-reported summaries are no longer sufficient.
Buy America provisions require material documentation
IIJA Buy America requirements mean every material must be documented with country-of-origin certificates. Missing documentation holds up progress payments.

Federal Compliance Features
“The Inspector General audited our IIJA highway project. They examined 18 months of daily reports, certified payroll, and DBE participation records. We passed, but two other primes on the same program did not.”
