- What is the Little Miller Act?
The Little Miller Act is a U.S. federal law that provides a framework similar to the Miller Act, but it is designed to apply at the state level. It requires certain types of contractors to provide payment and performance bonds for public construction projects, ensuring that subcontractors and suppliers are paid for their work. The Act is named after its federal counterpart, the Miller Act, which governs federal construction projects.
It helps ensure financial protection for those involved in public construction projects by providing a mechanism to address payment disputes and enforce contractual obligations. It is an essential part of managing risk and ensuring fairness in public construction contracting at the state and local levels.
