About this file

This is a Vendor Reference Form issued by the Texas Cyber Command (TXCC) for Request for Offer (RFO) 371-00013 concerning Sovereign Terrain and Digital Border Defense services. The form serves as an evaluation tool for assessing vendor performance and qualifications. Vendors responding to this RFO are required to submit completed reference forms from past customers to TXCC at txcc.procurement@txcc.texas.gov no later than May 5, 2026 at 3:00 PM CST. The form requests information about the vendor's prior performance over a two-year period, including the type of products or services provided, contract dates, and total estimated contract dollar amounts.

The reference form evaluates vendors across five primary categories using a four-point rating scale (0=Unsatisfactory, 1=Marginally Satisfactory, 2=Satisfactory, 3=Exceeds Expectations, N/A=Not Applicable). Evaluation criteria include quality of products or services, timeliness of delivery and performance adherence, cost management including invoice accuracy, business relations and customer satisfaction, and overall vendor reliability. References must be completed by customers with direct experience with the vendor and include detailed comments, recommendations regarding future engagement, and contact information for the rater. The scoring definitions indicate that satisfactory ratings require nonconformances and delays to not impact contract requirement achievement, while unsatisfactory ratings reflect performance that compromises contractual obligations.
