Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates in Tillman County, Oklahoma

4 Davis-Bacon wage determinations cover Tillman County for building, residential, highway and heavy construction, with 104 rates across 19 trades. Of each trade's main rate, boilermaker is the highest at $58.11 an hour and tile setter the lowest at $7.25, base plus fringe.

The Department of Labor modifies these determinations on SAM.gov in weekly batches through the year; the latest Oklahoma modification we hold is dated May 18, 2026. A contract keeps the wage determination in its bid documents. Modifications published before bid opening apply to it, though one published less than 10 days before can be left out if the agency finds there isn't time to tell bidders (29 CFR 1.6(c)). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.

Davis-Bacon is the only prevailing wage here (federally funded or assisted work). Oklahoma's law was invalidated in 1995 and its public-works wage rules are revoked (DOL state table).
