PREQUALIFICATIONS
Partner With Us: Help Build Something Great
At McGough, we know that our success as a general contractor and construction manager depends upon our teams and their extraordinary expertise – and that includes our subcontractors and suppliers. We focus on finding solutions, sharing praise, respecting our partners, and being a fair contractor, which is evidenced by our many Contractor of the Year awards and longstanding subcontractor relationships.
The Prequalification Process
McGough requires that all subcontractors, material suppliers and professional service trade partners be prequalified prior to intent to award. On this page you will find what documents you will need for electronic upload as part of your submission. To make the process as easy and efficient as possible, you should have these documents prepared and gathered before you log in to enter information in our online portal. Please note that all financial information associated with the prequalification process is kept strictly confidential.
To get started, please select the appropriate Trade Partner category below to see prequalification requirements.
