PAYMENT OF SUBCONTRACTORS. The Contractor is required to make payment to subcontractors within thirty (30) days from the receipt of each payment the Contractor receives from STA for satisfactorily completed subcontractor work, whether such payment is a progress or final payment. The Contractor agrees further to return retainage payments to each subcontractor within thirty (30) days after the subcontractor’s work is satisfactorily completed. If payment disputes arise between the Contractor and its subcontractors, such disputes shall be resolved promptly through mediation or arbitration in order to prevent injury to small business subcontractors. The Contractor shall specify in its subcontract agreement what dispute resolution method will be used. In addition, the Contractor will not be paid for subcontractors’ work unless the Contractor can show that a prompt payment method for its subcontractors is in place. The Contractor shall be required to provide copies of its subcontracts to STA showing inclusion of these provisions. STA may withhold the applicable sum due a subcontractor for non-compliance with this section.
