Reference_Sheet.docx

This is a reference sheet requirement document for Pinellas County, Florida's Artificial Intelligence (AI) Strategic Roadmap and Governance Framework Consultant procurement. Qualified consulting firms must submit a minimum of three references from US-based public sector entities demonstrating successful completion of projects within the past three to five years in AI, data governance, modernization, or policy-related services. For each reference, firms must provide the organization name, project start date and duration, detailed outline of services provided, total project price, and complete contact information including name, title, email address, and phone number for the reference contact.

The reference requirement is designed to verify the bidder's experience and capability in delivering strategic AI advisory services comparable to what Pinellas County seeks—namely, the development of a comprehensive enterprise-wide AI Strategic Roadmap that includes governance structure establishment, policy framework development, organizational readiness assessment, high-value use case identification, and phased implementation strategy across multiple county constitutional functions and departments. The references must demonstrate proven ability to support responsible, secure, and transparent AI deployment while improving service delivery and operational efficiency, ultimately supporting the County's three to five-year planning horizon for AI adoption.
