In order to be considered for a RFI, the business must first create a proposal outlining what they need and how they would like to proceed with procurement. Once the proposal is complete, the business will submit it to their target market or category. After receiving response from their target market or category, the business will use this information to create a final RFI document. The document should include an overview of what was requested, any special requests or conditions that must be met, and a timetable for when responses should be submitted. It is important that businesses follow the correct RFI process in order to receive quality responses and make the best possible choice for their procurement needs.
