Vendor Experience Documentation Forms 7-21-25~5.docx

This document is a Vendor Experience Documentation Form required for state and local contract opportunities in Illinois involving natural resource management. The form requires vendors' owners or primary field contact persons to document relevant experience across multiple project references. Qualifying projects must be from sites containing natural communities with endangered and threatened species, areas included on the Illinois Natural Areas Inventory with high floristic quality, dedicated Nature Preserves, or registered Land and Water Reserves. The form provides space for documentation of up to four reference projects, with each entry requiring the project name and location, reference contact information, native plant community type (such as prairie, wetland, or forest), land use type (such as Nature Preserve, State Park, CRP, municipal park, or National Wildlife Refuge), approximate acreage, type of work completed, and completion date.

The form includes separate sections for documenting both the vendor's owner or primary field contact person experience and onsite staff experience, with provisions allowing for staff substitutions at the time of work as long as all personnel meet the specified experience requirements for the project. At least one reference project must demonstrate the required years of experience. The document appears to be part of a larger bidding package and is formatted as page four of a multi-page submission requirement for vendors responding to Illinois state and local contract opportunities.
