INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTRACTOR'S LICENSING
"A" general engineering contractors and "B" general building contractors are
reminded that due to the Hawaii Supreme Court's January 28, 2002 decision in Okada
Trucking Co., Ltd. v. Board of Water Supply, et al., 97 Haw. 450 (2002), they are
prohibited from undertaking any work, solely or as part of a larger project, which would
require the general contractor to act as a specialty contractor in any area where the
general contractor has no license. Although the "A" and "B" contractor may still bid on
and act as the "prime" contractor on an "A" or "B" project (See, HRS 444-7 for the
definitions of an "A" and "B" project.), respectively, the "A" and "B" contractor may only
perform work in the areas in which they have the appropriate contractor's license (An "A"
or "B" contractor obtains "C" specialty contractor's licenses either on its own, or
automatically under HAR 16-77-32.). The remaining work must be performed by
appropriately licensed entities. It is the sole responsibility of the contractor to review the
requirements of this project and determine the appropriate licenses that are required to
complete the project.
