The National Prequalification System for Non-residential Buildings (NPS) applies to non-residential building contracts with a construction cost of $50 million or more.

The NPS streamlines the prequalification systems across Australia to:

• prevent duplication of effort by contractors and jurisdictions
• provide mutual recognition (where possible) of contractor prequalification by jurisdictions.

If you're a contractor wishing to prequalify for contracts valued at $50 million or more, you must apply under the NPS in the state of your company's head office.

To be eligible to undertake Queensland Government building projects valued at $50 million or more, you must be registered on the Prequalification (PQC) System as a contractor or managing contractor.

Contact the PQC team on 1800 072 621 or at PQCRegistrar@epw.qld.gov.au for more information on this process.
