FAQ

What is Request for Information (RFI)?

Request for Information (RFI) serves as an initial step to gather essential background information about potential suppliers or vendors. They are designed to assess the qualifications, capabilities, and general profiles of prospective suppliers. RFIs primarily focus on information gathering and supplier screening, without delving into the detailed proposal.

What is a Request for Proposal (RFP)?

Request for Proposal (RFP) is a formal and comprehensive document used in the procurement process. It comes after the RFI stage and is sent to pre-qualified suppliers. RFPs outline the specific requirements, scope of work, and expectations in detail. Suppliers responding to an RFP are expected to provide thorough proposals, including detailed pricing, project plans and specific timelines. RFPs represent the formal stage for soliciting detailed proposals and ultimately selecting the supplier.
