Annex III – Prequalification Criteria and Requirements

Note for the Joint Ventures: Note that the minimum requirements for the Lead Partner of the JV and Other Partners of the JV are different. Note that even if the lead partner and the other partners of the JV meet the minimum requirements, individually, the JV may still not be considered qualified, if the combined qualifications of the JV do not meet the minimum requirements, stipulated under “All combined” column in the above tables. For instance, if a JV has two members, and if the similar construction experience of the JV lead partner is US$4.000.000 and the similar construction experience other partner is US$1.600.000, the combined similar construction of the JV would be US$5.600.00, in which case the JV would not meet the minimum requirement of US$8.000.000.
