SYSKA HENNESSY GROUP CONSTRUCTION, INCORPORATED (“Syska
Construction”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of SYSKA HENNESSY
GROUP, INCORPORATED (“Syska Group”). Syska Construction
was created in Los Angeles County in 1996 to provide turnkey delivery
of projects to our clients. To assist in providing these services
to the Government and public, Syska Construction enters into contracts
with subcontractors, vendors, architects, engineers, consultants,
and other business entities, hereafter referred to as “Firms.”
We require all prospective Firms to submit a complete pre-qualification
package before entering into a contract with Syska Construction.
Syska Construction has developed a Pre-Qualification Application
Form (“Application”) that shall be submitted by all
Firms competing for contracts of $25,000 or more. The Application
requirement is effective as of October 1, 2002. The Application
requests Firms to disclose information relating to areas such as:
A. General
Subcontractors, vendors, consultants and anyone wishing to do
business with Syska Construction must submit an Application prior
to acceptance of a bid or proposal that exceeds $25,000. Failure
to comply with the Pre-Qualification requirements may result in
the bid/proposal being declared non-responsive. Syska Construction
strongly encourages Firms to submit an Application well in advance
of any future contracting opportunity. Firms should only submit
the original Application and one set of attachments. Multiple copies
are not necessary.
B. Term of Pre-Qualification
Pre-Qualification is effective for a period of two years from
the date of the Pre-Qualification approval letter, unless new information
comes to light which may disqualify the Firm, such as conviction
for fraud or other crimes, or if there are significant changes
in the composition of the Firm.
In addition, applicant must notify Syska Construction within 5
business days of any issue or occurrence that would cause a change
to an answer presented in Sections IV, V, VI or VII after the application
is submitted. You must also acknowledge this information in writing
by submitting a signed and notarized Validation certification with
an attachment updating such changes.
To ensure continuity of your pre-qualification status, all Firms
must submit a new Application prior to the end of the two-year
period.
C. Validation Statement
During the two-year term, Applicants who have previously received
a Pre-Qualification approval letter and wish to bid/propose on
a new contracting opportunity need to submit a copy of the Validation
Statement no later than the bid or proposal due date. A general
partner, owner, principal, or executive officer of the Firm who
is authorized to legally commit the Firm must complete the Validation
Statement. Submit only original Validation Statements as copies
or facsimiles will not be accepted.
Firms must include the latest financial statements or tax returns
if they have not already been submitted. If any information in
the Application has changed, the Firm will need to attach a separate
page with a full explanation. Syska Construction reserves the right
to ask for additional information regarding the Firm.
A copy of the Validation Statement is located on the last page
of the Application form. If you are unsure of your filing requirements,
contact Pat Graff at 310.254.3634.
D. What We Do With Your Application
All Applications will be checked for completeness upon receipt.
All applicant Firms and Key Personnel will be reviewed for Government
and public entity Debarment exclusion.
When an Application is deemed complete, the Application will undergo
the verification process.
The verification process may include review of public databases
and records checks of references, financial analysis, and utilization
of other research methods. It is only after this process is completed
that the Firm is approved or denied pre-qualification.
Once the verification is complete and approval is granted, the
Firm will be notified by letter of the approval and the period
of pre-qualification.
For the complete PreQualification Process, Instructions and Forms,
please register by filling out a request form.
