What is an RFI?
An RFI is a standard business process designed to collect written information about the capabilities of various suppliers. This preliminary step is often used to help make more informed decisions before soliciting formal proposals through an RFP. The RFI typically seeks to gather insights on potential solutions, costs, and timelines to better understand the market landscape and available options.
