The WSDOT Prequalification staff is responsible for prequalification
of Contractors to bid as a Prime on WSDOT Highway construction projects.
Washington Law RCW
47.28.070 as implemented by Washington
Administrative Code (WAC) 468.16 Prequalification of Contractors,
requires the Department of Transportation, before furnishing any
person, firm, or corporation desiring to bid upon any work for which
a call for bid proposals has been published with a contract proposal
form, require from the person, firm, or corporation, answers to
questions contained in a standard form of questionnaire and financial
statement, including a complete statement of the financial ability
and experience of the person, firm or corporation in performing
state highway, road, or other public work. Bid proposals upon any
construction or improvement of any state highway shall be made upon
contract proposal form supplied by the department and in no other
manner. For a firm showing a net worth in excess of one hundred
thousand dollars, the applicant must provide, with the questionnaire,
a copy of its financial statement as audited or reviewed for its
last fiscal year, prepared in accordance with the standards of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The statement
must be prepared by an independent certified public accountant registered
and licensed under the laws of any state. Balance sheets, income
statements, a statement of retained earnings, supporting schedules
and notes, and the opinion of the independent auditor must accompany
the financial statement.
Financial information supplied by, or on behalf of, an applicant
for the purpose of qualification shall not be made available for
public inspection and copying pursuant to RCW
47.28.075 . The foregoing restriction shall not prohibit
the departments providing such information in evidence or
in pretrial discovery in any court action or administrative hearing
involving the department and a contractor. Insofar as permitted
by public disclosure statutes, qualification ratings shall be treated
as confidential information.
Download the Standard
Questionnaire and Financial Statement form. This form must be
properly completed, executed, signed, and submitted to the address
indicated on the form. There is no fee for prequalification.
The Standard
Questionnaire and Financial Statement form is a PDF file and
will require an Adobe
Acrobat Reader to view it. If you are having problems printing
the questionnaire from the Adobe Acrobat Reader, try using a PostScript
printer driver. After you have printed the form, remember to return
to your previously installed printer driver. Should you be unable
to print the questionnaire you may send your company name, address,
and telephone number with a request for a hard copy to: walkeke@wsdot.wa.gov

Some of the links on this page point to PDF documents, for which
you will need Adobe's Acrobat Reader. If you don't have this, you
can download it for free at Adobe's
web site.
