First Step Applications
The First Step Application is for contractors wishing to prequalify for building projects with a value exceeding $250,000 at all risk levels (i.e. PQC Levels 1 to 4). Contractors wishing to apply for prequalification status should fill in the Contractor PQC: First Step Application Form.
As the first step in PQC registration, applicants are required to complete all sections of the form and return it to the PQC Registrar. This information is then reviewed by officers of the Department of Public Works in consultation with other departments.
Applicants that satisfy the State's requirements of the Contractor PQC: First Step form are then invited to complete the second stage of the application process. Applicants are invited to contact the PQC Registrar and request any necessary support or assistance in completing the forms. This support can be offered over the telephone or in our offices - contact the PQC Registrar to make an appointment.
