As per Resolution No. R-1122-21, Contractors must have a minimum of 5 years’ experience performing work in their specific trade. In the event a new firm is established by executives, supervisors, and other senior field staff (key employees) that would have met these minimum experience requirements with a prior firm, MDAD reserves the right to qualify the new firm, based on MDAD’s sole determination and evaluation of the knowledge and prior experience of these key employees employed by the new firm. 3.
