Business Reference Form~29.docx

This is a Business Reference Form for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in response to Request for Response (RFR) Number MTRS27TaxTechCounsel, which seeks Special Tax Counsel and Technical Legal services. The form requires bidders to provide three business references that will be contacted to verify the bidder's qualifications and capabilities as described in their proposal submission. The department reserves the right to deem a bidder's response unresponsive if any listed reference cannot be reached after reasonable contact attempts.

The Business Reference Form is a standard submission requirement that requests detailed information for each of the three required references, including the reference name, contact person, complete address, email address, phone number, and an alternative fax or contact number. Additionally, bidders must provide a description of the commodities or services provided by each reference, along with the dates those services were rendered. This information enables the contracting agency to conduct due diligence on the bidder's prior experience and performance history in delivering tax counsel and technical legal services.
