Vendor Reference Verification Form for External Audit Services

This document is a Vendor Reference Verification Form issued by Broward County Board of County Commissioners for solicitation GEN2132533P1, External Audit Services. The form establishes requirements for vendors seeking to provide independent Certified Public Accounting services to perform annual financial and compliance audits for Broward County, its Constitutional Officers, and Component Units. Vendors must submit a minimum of three non-Broward County references with completed verification forms at the time of submittal. If references are not provided with the initial response or cannot be verified, vendors must submit the forms within three business days of the County's written request. The form requires references to document the project name, contract number, service dates, project amount, and vendor's role as either prime contractor or subconsultant/subcontractor.

The reference verification form requires detailed evaluation of vendor performance across multiple criteria, including quality of service, organizational capabilities, timeliness, budget adherence, and cooperation with client firms and regulatory agencies. References must rate vendors as either Needs Improvement, Satisfactory, Excellent, or Not Applicable across dimensions such as responsiveness, accuracy, deliverables, staff expertise, professionalism, and staff turnover. The form explicitly notifies vendors that inaccurate, untruthful, or incorrect statements may result in rejection of their response, rescission of award, contract termination, or debarment pursuant to the Broward County Procurement Code. All submissions must be made electronically through BPRO, and vendors are encouraged to submit documentation in advance of the closing deadline.
