Bidding for business cooperatives
Updated: July 2025, 12
In order to secure an opportunity for a "business cooperative" to receive an order, special provisions regarding the "overall evaluation value" of the management matters examination, which is determined as a necessary qualification when a "business cooperative" participates, are applied in the application for the registration examination of qualifications for participation in construction bids. We have established.
▶Target bids
Bidding for civil engineering work, architectural work (excluding prefabricated work and demolition work), paving work, electrical work, water supply, drainage, sanitary, heating and cooling work, landscaping work, etc. (work that requires special technology for execution, and other works for which the mayor has qualified) (Excluding bids related to construction contracts for which additional provisions are deemed inappropriate.)
What is a business cooperative?
It is a type of "small and medium-sized cooperative association." Small and medium-sized enterprises are organized to cooperate with each other and carry out business together based on the spirit of mutual aid (spirit of mutual aid), and to modernize and rationalize management and improve and improve economic status.
It is only necessary for four or more people to gather together to form an association, and it can be established relatively freely by business owners who are like-minded and have the same needs.As an association that is very easy to establish for small and medium-sized businesses, it is widely popular and is the most representative type of association. It's a union.
In most cases, business cooperatives were established by businesses in the same industry, but recently businesses in different industries have collaborated to establish business cooperatives, and each member's accumulated technology and management know-how can be used to manage the business. An increasing number of companies are pooling their resources to develop new technologies and products, as well as develop new business fields and new markets. Many unions are engaged in projects such as those shown on the right.
