Forget the binary package, it's impossible for you to use in this case.

Take the centos Qt source package(s?), replace the opensource sources 
with the enterprise sources in the package, rename to qt-enterprise or 
something, build the package.

That will give you a set of native centos packages with dependency info 
in them and an easy upgrade path later. It also allows you to easily 
distribute patches, if you need them.
