We have looked at various topics over the years and consulted on many more. However, it is worth revisiting the idea of a Request For Proposals (RFP) and what you should look for in this process. It is not a small or simple thing in most cases. Therefore, it should be entered in with the respect and expectations it deserves. The steps may seem tedious, but they are worth the investment. We will explore the pros and cons and convince you of the value of this daunting task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Request For Proposals – More Than A Document<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, an RFP is more than a document. It is sometimes misunderstood as little more than a document one sends out, and they get similar documents in return. Thus, it may be seen as a form of job posting. That reduces it to a set of requirements and applicants line up. However, even that analogy tends to fall apart as job applicants go through an interview process. That process often includes multiple interviews and time spent getting to know the applicant while teaching them about the organization. Hmmm, maybe that analogy is a good one for us to use.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The RFP As A Job Posting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We have all seen job posts that follow several formats. They differ from the size available on the platform (website, newspaper, etc.) and the specifics of the role. There is also a range from casual to formal in how jobs are listed. That being said, we all can recognize a good job posting includes key attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
