4-3. Vendor Reference Form.pdf

This document is a Vendor Reference Form from Southwestern University, designed to collect reference information from potential vendors bidding on a contract. The form requires vendors to submit a minimum of three business references for similar work completed within the past five years, with each reference section requiring details such as business name, contact information, and a brief description of services provided and performance period. Failure to complete and return this exhibit may result in the proposal being deemed non-responsive.

The form provides a standardized template for vendors to document their past performance, which appears to be part of a comprehensive bid evaluation process. The university seeks to verify vendor capabilities and track record by requesting detailed reference information across three separate reference entries. This approach allows the procurement team to assess the vendor's experience, reliability, and quality of previous work before making a contract award.
