Public Contract Code 20111.5 enables districts to require prime contractors to be prequalified prior to
accepting bids.

Public Contract Code 20111.6 requires the district to do so for certain projects. This applies to prime
contractors and MEP sub-contractors with the following licenses:

• General Contractors (A and B), Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing subcontractors (C-4, C-7, C-10,
  C-16, C-20, C-34, C-36, C-38, C-42, C-43, and C-46)
• The District must receive complete applications at least ten (10) business days prior to the scheduled
  bid opening on any advertised project in order for the candidate to qualify for a project in excess of
  $1,000,000 and partially funded by the State. Pre-qualification approval will remain valid for one (1)
  calendar year from the date of notice of qualification except as noted in the pre-qualification
  documents.
