Contractor's Qualification Statement for Engineered Construction - 220

ConsensusDocs 220 is a comprehensive Constructor Prequalification Statement designed for use by Owners of construction projects, particularly those involving complex engineered facilities such as water or wastewater treatment plants, power plants, or infrastructure projects where the engineer is the lead design professional.

This prequalification contract document allows owners to request and evaluate detailed information about potential Constructors—which may include general contractors, design-builders, builders, or construction managers—before issuing bid documents or awarding a contract. By assessing qualifications upfront, owners can ensure that only competent and experienced firms with the capacity to manage specialized, large-scale projects are invited to participate in the construction process.

ConsensusDocs 220 collects a wide range of critical information, including:

• Previous project experience and performance
• Current workload and ongoing projects
• Organizational structure and business history
• Financial stability and bonding capacity
• Safety records and EMR (Experience Modification Rate)
• Key personnel qualifications and experience

By standardizing the prequalification process, this document supports risk mitigation, project planning, and better-informed decision-making. It also provides constructors with a professional, structured opportunity to establish trust and positive communication with the owner early in the process.

ConsensusDocs 220 is especially useful for engineer-led public or private infrastructure projects, where technical complexity and performance history are key to successful outcomes. It helps owners streamline contractor selection while ensuring that bidders meet the necessary standards of competence, financial strength, and safety compliance.

For owners seeking a reliable way to vet contractors before committing to the bidding or construction phase, ConsensusDocs 220 delivers a strategic advantage in contractor qualification and selection.
