ZhilianhaiSubcontracting Rules in Public Tenders
What is usually required
| Point | Typical rule |
|---|---|
| Disclosure | Name subcontractors and their scope in the bid |
| Approval | Named subcontractors may need consent |
| Limits | Restrictions on the share of the contract that can be subcontracted |
| Responsibility | The main contractor stays liable for subcontractor performance |
| Changes | New subcontractors after award need approval |
Practical consequences
- Leaving subcontractors to be named later can slow mobilisation.
- Key technical roles are sometimes reserved for the bidder own staff.
- Failing to disclose can be treated as a misrepresentation.
