12-5. Form Reference Bonfire for 10pts Jun 2025.pdf

This is a reference check form for a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by Dallas ISD in Texas for Employee Uniforms and Supplies for Food and Child Nutrition Services. The RFP seeks to procure uniforms for Food Services cafeterias, central kitchen, and warehouse employees, including polo shirts, aprons, hats, and chef coats to ensure professional and consistent appearance across the district. The uniforms will be purchased on an "as needed" basis for district-wide use. The contract term is one year with two successive one-year renewal options, not to exceed three years total. Either party must provide written notice of non-renewal no fewer than ninety days prior to expiration of the current term. Reference questionnaires must be submitted by January 29, 2026, at 2:00 PM Central Time to Procurementreferencecheck@dallasisd.org.

The reference check form requires vendors to provide company references that can attest to their past performance on similar products or services. References must respond to a questionnaire assessing whether the vendor provided satisfactory products or services, likelihood of future engagement, and overall performance ratings on a scale of one to ten. The reference questionnaire must be submitted directly from the reference company's email account to Dallas ISD's procurement department. This RFP is issued in accordance with Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, USDA, and TDA requirements, as the uniforms will be purchased using federal dollars and may be funded through local, state, federal, and grant-funded programs. All vendors, including sole source providers, are encouraged to participate.
