The Government of South Australia through its Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI), has developed a prequalification process and associated prequalification requirements for businesses wishing to contract with the Government for building construction and related professional service contracts – DPTI Building and Construction Project Prequalification System.  The system enables DPTI to:

• develop a register of contractors who are interested in contracting with government on construction projects
• set minimum requirements based on criteria against which the suitability of contractors to perform government work can be assessed
• adjust the minimum requirements periodically, in keeping with developments in the industry, to effect continuous improvement in the building and construction industry in South Australia
• develop objective, quantifiable data to support the decision-making and risk assessment processes in prequalifying contractors taking into account their technical capability and financial capacity.
  

Prequalification applications

Please note that you now have the option to complete forms electronically. Once complete, please print, sign and submit as advised on the forms.
