Heading: On Site Performance

Text: 26 The on-site performance of the supplier has been regarded as a factor in support of a subcontractor relationship by the Ninth Circuit. See Basich Bros. Constr. Co. v. United States for Use of Turner, 159 F.2d 182, 183 (9th Cir.1946) (subcontractor supplier delivered material to prime contractor at plant site); see also Moon, 698 F.Supp. at 667 (materialman supplier did no on-site work); but see Wellman, 350 F.2d at 286 (Second Circuit holding that definition of subcontractor not limited to only on-site performers). In the present case, this factor weighs in favor of a materialman relationship because the Tribe did not perform on site.
