A contractor holding a restricted licence issued by the Régie du bâtiment du Québec or registered in the register of companies ineligible for public contracts (RENA) and whose period of ineligibility for public contracts has not ended is not eligible to submit a tender; these two cases of ineligibility also apply to the tenderer's subcontractors.

Bidders are responsible for the selection of subcontractors, both for their creditworthiness and for the content of their bids; and must inform them of the conditions they intend to impose on them and ensure that they hold the required permits and licences.
