New Federal WH-347 Certified Payroll Report Now Available in Quantum Project Manager Version 23.1 

The U.S. Department of Labor issued a new version of the WH-347 form in January of 2025 to satisfy the updated requirements for submitting weekly certified payroll reports in compliance with the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts (DBRA). There is a new version 23.1 of the Quantum Project Manager that includes this new report. The document you can download below describes how to go about using the program to generate the new updated WH-347 report. You can also print to the previous WH-347 format which is still valid and expires 9/30/2026. There are more detailed field by field instructions from the U.S. DOL that can be printed from the program using the “Print Instructions” button on the certified payroll compliance reports screen.

There are many changes to the report. One major change is that the form now includes a column to report fringe benefit credits being taken toward compliance with the prevailing wage requirement and a column for cash paid in lieu of fringe benefits. There is also a new certification page that includes a section to list the different fringe benefit plans you may be contributing to and the hourly amounts for each employee.

The fringe benefits in the Quantum Project Manager program are listed on the timecard screen for each project and work class that the employee worked on. There are union, cash and plan fields. The plan field can be broken down into 6 different categories which by default are Health & Welfare, Pension, Vacation, Apprenticeship Training, and Other (2 fields for other). The cash field will be used for reporting cash paid in lieu of fringe benefits. The union and plan fields can be mapped to funded or unfunded fringe benefit plans for purposes of reporting them on the certification page. The fringe benefit plans can be created and then set up on each project to print as the columns on the certification page in the fringe benefit section. This requirement to create fringe benefit plans is new but is necessary to comply with the new reporting format. Mapping the union and plan fields to the fringe benefit plans is the critical part of this if using plans.
