PQC Contractor – Performance Reports

In accordance with the Capital Works Management Framework, departments are required to complete PQC performance reports for each contractor engaged through the PQC System. 

Reports are to be completed:

  1. every 13 construction weeks for contracts exceeding 20 construction weeks;
  2. within 14 days of Practical Completion and issue of Final Certificate; and
  3. preferably, in a face-to-face meeting between the Superintendent’s Representative/Site Representative and the Contractor’s Representative/Manager’s Representative, where all relevant issues are discussed.

The Contractor PQC Performance Report is available to complete as a form on screen by the Superintendent’s Representative/Site Representative, for discussion with the Contractor’s Representative/Manager’s Representative, subsequent printing and sign off. When completed, the performance report and any attachments must be submitted in electronic format (PDF) to the PQC Registrar.

The performance report seeks to review a contractor's technical and management performance as well as compliance with statutory, contractual and prequalification requirements. Further, the report provides the PQC Registrar, and the contractor’s management, with valuable feedback on elements of the contractor's performance.

The receipt of poor performance reports in relation to a contractor may trigger a review of their PQC Registration details under the Review and Sanctions Process. The Review and Sanctions Process guideline can be accessed on the ‘Contractor/Guidelines’ section of this website.

The receipt of consistently superior performance reports in relation to a contractor may lead to increased tendering opportunities for that contractor for select tenders.

In accordance with mandatory requirement number 14 of the Capital Works Management Framework, agencies are required to keep the Department of Public Works informed at all times of any signs that might indicate possible contractor failure or financial or managerial stress. Departmental officers or consultant Superintendent Representatives etc that become aware that a contractor may be treating or handling subcontractors or workers inappropriately, displaying signs of stress in whatever form and/or involved in contractual, legal or administrative action that may jeopardise the performance of the contractor must inform the PQC Registrar as soon as practical.
