Anatomy of an RFP: RFP Series 2 of 4

Share

Live Webinar February 1st, 2013 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EST
Duration: 1 hour webinar Credits: 1 PDU Category A – $15 USD PDU
Presented by: Solutions Cube Group (REP 2451)

Purchasing a project solution versus building one internally to avoid the cost and time of re-inventing the wheel is becoming more common on projects. Selecting a vendor through a Request For Proposal (RFP) process doesn’t always guarantee that the solution the vendor proposed, and the project team selected, really meets the project’s needs and stakeholder’s expectations.

In order for vendors to effectively propose a viable project solution, they must have all of the necessary information regarding the project environment and needs. To prepare a complete RFP document, the project team needs to include information for 7 distinct components of the RFP.

In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn:

  • The 7 components of an RFP
  • The role each of the RFP components plays in selecting the right vendor
  • The critical project information that should be given to the potential vendors in an RFP.

Join Solutions Cube for this 1 hour in-depth webinar and learn what the 7 RFP components are and how they are used to influence the decisions associated with selecting the right vendor and solution.
