About this file

The document is a Reference Request Form associated with a network equipment bid (Bid #020-DW-0125) for The School Board of Polk County, Florida. The bid solicits competitive pricing for network equipment, with the district specifying that material pricing is requested, and installation will be performed by district personnel. The procurement is contingent upon E-Rate funding approval and available district funds. The reference form requires bidders to obtain at least three references who will evaluate the contractor's performance across multiple criteria including time requirements, service responsiveness, specification adherence, site cleanup, and overall contract performance.

The reference evaluation process involves a detailed scoring mechanism where references rate the contractor on a scale from 1 (unsatisfactory) to 6 (excellent) across multiple performance factors. The form also includes sections for total contract dollar amount, additional comments, and a recommendation on whether the referenced company would work with the contractor again. The specific procurement is for network equipment to be funded through the E-Rate program, which provides discounted telecommunications and internet access for eligible schools and libraries, indicating this is a technology infrastructure enhancement for the Polk County School District.
