3-3. Reference Sheet.pdf

This is a reference sheet template issued by the City of Arlington, Office of Procurement, for use in evaluating vendor qualifications in response to the Request for Proposals for Water Risk Assessment Analysis. The solicitation seeks a machine learning-based solution for assessing and prioritizing risk exposure within the water main network managed by Arlington Water Utilities (AWU). The initiative aims to apply advanced data analytics to support data-driven planning and prioritization of capital improvements for water infrastructure. Vendors are required to submit electronic proposals through the City of Arlington's exclusive platform, Bonfire, with paper submissions accepted only in sealed envelopes labeled with company name, solicitation number, and title. Late proposals will not be accepted, and the City accepts no responsibility for solicitations received through alternative means.

As part of the proposal evaluation process, vendors must provide at least three (3) professional references from recent customers to whom similar services were provided. Each reference submission must include the customer company name, contact person name and title, address, phone number, email address, type of services provided, contract dates, and contract amount. References must be available for contact via phone and/or email at the time of evaluation. This reference sheet serves as the standardized format for documenting vendor experience and demonstrating capability to deliver the water risk assessment analysis services required by Arlington Water Utilities in Texas.
