3-3. Reference Sheet.pdf

This is a reference sheet document for the City of Arlington, Texas, for use in evaluating vendor proposals for fleet maintenance services. The document requires vendors to provide information for at least three recent customer references with whom they have provided similar services. For each reference, vendors must supply the customer company name, primary contact person with title, complete address, phone number, email address, description of services provided, contract dates, and contract amount. The City of Arlington emphasizes that all solicitations are distributed exclusively through Bonfire, and proposals submitted through other channels may be incomplete or non-compliant. The city encourages electronic submission of responses but accepts sealed paper proposals if submitted with the company name, solicitation number, and project title clearly labeled; late proposals will not be accepted.

The reference sheet serves as a standardized form to verify vendor experience and capability in delivering fleet maintenance services comparable to the city's requirements. All three references must be available for contact via phone or email during the evaluation process. This documentation requirement ensures the city can validate each proposer's track record and performance history with similar clients before making contract awards.
