So, you have a project you about to start, you about to start and you have found the companies that you can outsource this project to or have an innovative technology that would make the outcome exceptional. In this article we will be looking at how to prepare an RFQ to potential engineering companies.
Contents of an RFQ:
There is no one size fits all for RFQs. The contents of the RFQ is meant to clearly state the following;
- Introduction/Preamble
- Provisions
- Scope of Work
- Closing date
- RFQ Package Documents etc.
There are tons of RFQ templates you can choose from, but writing a good RFQ would require expertise so as to prevent the recipients from misinterpreting the contents of the RFQ and sue for damages due to misinterpretation of the contents of the RFQ.
NOTE: Most companies have policies that must be fulfilled by the vendors in an RFQ. So, make sure to check with your legal department to identify them so as to include them in the RFQ.
