RFP - Reference Check Questionnaire 1996

  • YEAR CREATED: 1996
  • TYPE OF DOCUMENT: RFP - Request for Proposals
The document is a reference check questionnaire for an ITB/RFP (Invitation to Bid/Request for Proposal) process. The questionnaire is designed to gather information about a bidder/offeror's previous work and performance from references provided by the bidder/offeror. The questionnaire is divided into two pages. On the first page, there is a space to fill in the ITB/RFP number, the name of the bidder/offeror, and the reference being contacted. The person being interviewed from the reference is also recorded. The questionnaire consists of several questions to be asked during the reference check. The questions include asking about the scope of work performed by the bidder/offeror for the reference's organization, whether the project was completed on time and within budget, any problems encountered during the project and how they were resolved, and a rating of the bidder/offeror on various factors such as professionalism, final product, qualifications, cooperation, budget control, and reliability. The questionnaire also asks whether the reference would re-hire the bidder/offeror and how they would describe the qualifications of the bidder/offeror for a project. There is also a question about other companies or governments the bidder/offeror has worked for, with a suggestion to contact them for additional references. The second page of the document provides instructions for conducting the reference check. It suggests conducting the reference check either through a telephone call or a personal visit, with a preference for the latter as it allows for more information to be obtained. The instructions provide guidance on what information to gather during the reference check, including the nature of the work performed, whether the project was completed on time and within budget, any problems encountered and how they were resolved, and the professionalism and qualifications of the bidder/offeror. The instructions also suggest asking for explanations if the reference indicates a "maybe" or "no" response to whether they would contract with the bidder/offeror again. Additionally, there is a space for any additional comments or observations made during the reference check, and a suggestion to ask for other parties who may have experience with the bidder/offeror to use as additional references.
