CONTRACTOR PRE-QUALIFICATION

Pre-qualification is required for projects valued at $1,000,000 or more, using State Facility Bonds (per California Assembly Bill AB1565). OUHSD passed Resolution #19-10 to utilize the Quality Bidders portal to process contractor pre-qualification applications. Prime contractors and MEP subcontractors must submit pre-qualification documentation on applicable projects to be considered. Contractors must sign up on the Quality Bidders website then choose Oxnard Union High School District as the district they would like to submit an application to.

Quality bidders registration for pre-qualification

  • Public Contract Code 20111.5 enable districts to require prime contractors to be pre-qualified prior to accepting bids.
  • Public Contract Code 20111.6 required the district to do so for certain projects. This applies to contractors and MEP sub-contractors with the following licenses:
    • General Contractors A and B
    • Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing Sub-contractors Contractors (C-4, C-7, C-10, C-16, C-20, C-34, C-36, C-38, C-42, C-43, and C-46)
    • It is recommended that applications be completed at least ten (10) business days prior to the scheduled bid opening on any advertised project. This will ensure the candidate allows time for the prequalification review process to occur. 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. A Contractor submitting bid(s) above their allowable approved dollar amount will cause the bid to be considered non-responsive.
