A Project Manager’s Guide to Writing the Best Software Development RFP
“As a project manager, you know that planning a project is vital to its success. It’s the same with an RFP. Before you start writing, it’s important to gather all the information you need to create a reliable, clear, and accurate document. Your potential providers will base their proposals on the details you give them, so if you’re able to supply high-quality specifications and information, you’ll get high-quality responses.
We know you’re already short on time and you don’t want to spend your days answering questions from providers. Spending some effort planning and gathering information for your RFP now will save you plenty of time answering emails and phone calls later!”
