What is
RFP Development?

A Request for Proposal (RFP) is a document that an organization sends to a vendor inviting the vendor to submit a bid for hardware, software, services, or any combination of the three. An organization typically issues the RFP in order to assess competing bids.

RFP Development services are provided by an outsourcing provider whose function is to take responsibility for the planning and development of the RFP as well as the evaluation of bids and the awarding of the contract which allows the organization who is outsourcing the RFP process the freedom to concentrate on their core business of meeting the needs of their customers.

The RFP development process typically includes:
• Verification of requirements
• Clarifying short-and-long-term goals
• Identifying budgetary requirements and weighing needs against fiscal realities
• Identifying/prequalifying potential vendors
• Creation of vendor "short lists"
• Establishing a coherent RFP format
• Creation of response requirements and criteria
• Full RFP development
• Assistance in response evaluations
• Assistance at vendor demonstrations
