About this file

This is a template for a sample bank notification letter to be issued by offerors responding to a Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) Request for Proposals for Residential Reentry Center services. The letter serves as authorization for the offeror's banking references to disclose financial information to the BOP's Contracting Officer, who is required by the Federal Acquisition Regulation to assess the apparent successful offeror's financial capability to complete an awarded contract prior to contract award.

The letter instructs the bank that it may receive inquiries from authorized BOP contracting staff regarding the offeror's financial standing and designates a specific point of contact at the financial institution to respond to such inquiries. The offeror must customize the template by inserting the RFP number, geographic location of the Residential Reentry Center, the name and contact information for the designated bank representative, and the offeror's point of contact for any questions. This is a template document intended to facilitate the financial capability evaluation process required during federal contract award procedures.
