START THE PREQUALIFICATION PROCESS

Our process of subcontractor selection begins with a review of basic company information. This process results in a list of highly qualified subcontractors throughout the Chicago area. Your cooperation is most appreciated. In order to maintain our subcontractor/supplier database, each subcontractor participates in an initial qualification process and provides periodic updates.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Bidding on certain bid packages is by invitation to prequalified bidders only.
Bidders are prequalified through APP's project specific prequalification process.
Processing prequalification applications may take over 30 days. Submit your prequalification documents early to allow for processing time.
Some trade packages are reserved for Small Business Enterprises (SBI) and Mid-sized Business Enterprises (MBI).
Tier Subcontractors and Suppliers are NOT required to complete the Prequalification Process. If you would like to participate as a Tier Subcontractor or Supplier, complete our Project Interest Form or reach out to our Prequalified Bidders.
