Per the Contractors State License Board, every contractor's licensee is required to designate a "Qualifying Individual." Often, the qualifying individual is a business owner who has met the license's experience and examination requirements and is responsible for overseeing and controlling the contractor business. However, if a business does not have an owner who qualifies under these requirements, they must name a Responsible Managing Employee (RME) or Responsible Managing Officer (RMO) with relevant experience in the trade as the qualifying individual.
The California Contractors State License Board requires a qualifying individual who is not an owner of the business must have a California Qualifying Individual Bond.
