Can the performance of a subsidiary be counted as that of a parent company?

The performance of subsidiaries cannot be counted as the performance of the parent company. Even a wholly-owned subsidiary cannot participate in the bidding with the qualification and performance of the parent company.

After the parent company injects the registered capital into the subsidiary, it becomes the shareholder of the subsidiary. According to the relevant provisions of the Company Law, the parent company and the subsidiary company are two independent legal entities, with independent property between them, each enjoying civil rights and assuming civil obligations.

Qualification and performance are related to the bidder's asset scale, production equipment and personnel. The parent company and its subsidiaries have different assets, production equipment and personnel, so their qualifications and performance are also different. The qualifications and achievements of the parent company are not transferable, and the subsidiaries have no right to participate in the bidding with their qualifications and achievements. Therefore, even a wholly-owned subsidiary cannot participate in the bidding with the qualification and performance of the parent company.

To set up a subsidiary, you need to prepare the following materials:

1. Application for establishment registration;

2. Articles of association;

3. Documents indicating the names and residences of the company's directors, supervisors and managers, as well as certificates of appointment, election or employment;

4. Certificate of company domicile;

5. Other information.

To sum up, subsidiaries cannot do parent company business. A subsidiary can carry out business that the parent company does not have, such as the business of some branches.
