Industry Issues Spotlight - DIR Website Issues Fail Contractors
How to Protect Your Company and Avoid Unnecessary Charges
The DIR’s failed rollout of a new website and eCPR submission system has left hundreds of contractors unable to submit CPRs, upload relevant data, and meet legal and contractual compliance requirements associated with work on public projects.
The impact of this issue is widespread, including, in the worst cases, certain agencies and entities withholding progress payments to contractors for failure to submit eCPRs, even though the DIR’s system dysfunction is often to blame.
This issue is a key advocacy focus for UCON with the DIR until it gets resolved. If you or your company is experiencing trouble with the DIR website or the consequences of their system’s malfunction, UCON offers key legal and troubleshooting guidance for contractors, including the option to get a one-on-one meeting with the DIR scheduled to address your company’s specific issues.
