Prequalification of Contractors
-
The state of California requires prequalification of bidders for projects over $1 million. The Palm Springs Unified School District may Prequalify contractors for Public Works Projects on a job-per-job basis. Prequalification may be required for any Public Works formal bid, at the sole discretion of the District.
Prequalification is not to be confused with CUPCCAA Registration for informal bids.
All prequalification questionnaires must be submitted electronically via PSUSD's Quality Bidders' prequalification portal below:
