Effective March 2008 the Pre-Qualification Certification function became the responsibility of the Office of Capital Improvements (OCI). This program is administered by the Professional Services Division of OCI.
On June 5, 2001, Miami-Dade County's Board of County Commissioners adopted Administrative Order 3-39 requiring all firms that engage in the practice of architectural, engineering, landscape architecture, or land surveying and mapping to obtain Pre-Qualification Certification prior to responding to a Notice to Professional Consultant (NTPC) for the acquisition of such services.
The Pre-Qualification Certification requires that firms obtain and maintain compliance/active status in 3 main areas: Vendor Registration, Technical Certification and Affirmative Action Plan. The Pre-Qualification is valid for one (1) year from technical certification approval. Any lapses in the certifications in any of the required areas will result in a suspension.
Requirements
The following are the individual applications (links) for vendor registration, technical certification and affirmative action plan.
