On heavy-highway projects, subcontractors typically perform about half, and even up to 70%, of the work required.That percentage is even greater within the building construction industry as many prime contractors focus solely on project management and do not self-perform work. The mere presence of a middleman between the owner and subcontractors can get complicated at times-especially when it comes to getting paid.No necessary linkage exists between an owner's duty under the prime contract to pay the prime contractor and a subcontractor's entitlement to payment for work it performs. In the absence of an agreement to the contrary, a subcontractor that has completed its work is entitled to be paid regardless of whether or not the prime has been paid by the project owner.
