3-Attachment F - Reference Document.docx

This is a Reference Form attachment for the State of Utah Department of Health and Human Services WIC Pharmacy Services contract opportunity (MK27-105). The form serves as a standardized reference document that bidders must complete and submit with their proposals to provide Pharmacy Services for the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program. The reference form requests contact information for the offeror vendor name and a reference contact, along with the reference contact's telephone number and email address. The State of Utah reserves the right to contact listed references to verify bidder qualifications and performance history.

The reference form includes eight evaluation questions designed to assess the bidder's past performance across multiple dimensions. These questions address the specific work previously performed, successful delivery and budget adherence, quality and timeliness of deliverables, ability to collaborate with staff, accessibility and follow-through on commitments, experience working with WIC vendors and related associations, and any problems encountered and their resolution. The single contract award will be made to the responsive and responsible vendor with the highest score, with a contract term of five years and a mandatory one-year pricing guarantee.
