I’ll wager it is rarely done, or done in more than a perfunctory way. Following your lead, if you ask real questions that relate to your real needs and address issues with with previous suppliers, you might get honest answers. Sometimes things that are important to you may not be an issue with the reference. You might require quick response, for example, and that might not be as important to him. Keep up good work.
