CIPS Exam L4M6 Topic 8 Question 9 Discussion
Topic #: 8
Danny is procuring a new IT software, which he doesn't know much about. He has done a bit of research on the internet but is still unsure how much he can expect to pay. What should be Danny's next step?
Danny should issue a RFI (Request for Information). His next step would be to find out more about the products available by asking suppliers for information- this will help him put a spec together before he goes out to tender. The other options mean; RFQ - request for quotation- when you ask suppliers to submit a price. ITT- Invitation to tender -- a document you send out to suppliers which details all the information about the tender (this usually involves both price and quality components of assessment). OJEU- Official Journal of the European Union- where tenders for the Public Sector are published. For more info on RFI see p.74
