Expert Roundtable: How Contractors Quietly Lose Money on Public Works Projects

Your public works jobs are bleeding money. You just can't see where.

It's not one big mistake. It's fringe errors, payroll rework, systems that don't talk to each other, paperwork gaps that stall payment, and manual processes you keep meaning to fix but never do. It compounds on every single job — and by the time you see it, it's already gone.

Here's the part nobody tells you: the contractors who are profitable on public works aren't doing more work. They just stopped losing money in the places you haven't looked yet.

⚠️ This roundtable will not happen again. Ever.

We got eBacon's co-founder Jack Biltis (20+ years in construction payroll, Wharton-educated, literally named the company after the Davis-Bacon Act) in a room with a fintech CEO who started as a builder, a CFO who started as an electrician, and a national payment protection expert.

That's 50+ years of "we've seen your exact problem a thousand times." For 1 hour. For free. ONCE.

You'd pay a consulting fee for 15 minutes with any one of them. You're getting all four for nothing.

In 60 minutes, they're covering:

• Where the money actually goes on public works jobs (it's not where you think)
• The disconnect between your field data, payroll, and accounting that's wrecking your job costing
• Why paying fringes as cash is adding 15–25% in hidden employer cost to every dollar — and the alternative most contractors don't know exists
• Fringe errors and compliance gaps creating audit exposure you won't see coming
• Paperwork and documentation issues that are delaying your payments right now
• What the contractors who figured this out are doing differently in 2026

Jack Biltis will break down how contractors are structuring fringe benefits to actually increase margins instead of eroding them — including an approach to fringe that eliminates the double taxation problem entirely. If you're paying fringes as cash right now, this hour could be the most expensive one you've ever skipped.

And that's just one piece — JD, Josh, and Amy are covering the financial systems, job costing, and payment protection side of the equation.

You should be in this room if:

• Your margins on public works are tighter than they should be and nobody can explain why
• Your payroll and accounting don't match and someone is manually fixing it every cycle
• Certified payroll is eating your week and one mistake means restitution
• You're still running spreadsheets for stuff that should've been automated years ago
