TERO Application Procedure Update – 11/2/2021 (PDF)

IMPORTANT: Consistent with the spirit of the MHA TERO law and regulation, MHA TERO is publishing the below self-performing list. The list is subject to change as TERO intends to perform additional due diligence in determining whether Qualified Indian Contractors should be classified as self-performers. Therefore, as TERO performs its due diligence, TERO anticipates that additional Qualified Contractors will be added to the list and some Qualified Indian Contractors will be removed from the list. The self-performing list is therefore subject to change with or without notice.
