A project manager needs to acquire specific equipment for a project and wants to get precise pricing from various suppliers based on detailed specifications. Which procurement document should the project manager use to request this information?
Request for Information
Request for Proposal
Invitation to Tender
Request for Quote
The project manager should use a Request for Quote (RFQ) to obtain exact pricing for well-defined products or services. An RFQ is appropriate when the specifications are clear, and price is the main factor in the selection process. A Request for Proposal (RFP) is used when seeking comprehensive solutions and ideas from vendors, not just pricing. A Request for Information (RFI) is used to gather general information about suppliers' capabilities and offerings, not detailed quotes. An Invitation to Tender is often used in formal procurement processes but may involve more legal and contractual obligations than an RFQ. Choosing the correct procurement document ensures the project manager receives the necessary information efficiently.
