Subcontractor Prequalification

Every sub over $250K in contract value must prequalify annually.

Required

  • 3 years financials (reviewed by Tom's team)
  • EMR ≤ 1.0 (0.8 preferred) and OSHA logs — Priya reviews
  • References: 2 GCs, 1 owner
  • Single-project and aggregate capacity limits set at approval

Tiers

  • Tier A — invited to all bids, early release packages
  • Tier B — invited selectively, max $1M single contract
  • Provisional — one project with enhanced retainage, then re-review

Approvals live in the sub database; exceptions require Dana + Priya sign-off.
