Overview of Postings:  RFIs and RFQsRequests for Information (RFIs)• Market Research is the exchange of information from the earliest 

identification of a requirement.• RFIs may be used when the Government does not presently intend to 

award a contract, but wants to obtain price, technical and other market information, or capabilities for project planning purposes.

• FAR 19.202 indicates that a Contracting Officer shall make every effort to find small business concerns that can compete for requirements.

Requests for Quotes (RFQs)• If the OCC determines we will be using a MAS, GWAC, or MAC, then we will 

ask for an RFQ. Asking for a quote would be appropriate as we are asking you to quote from a negotiated awarded Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle/schedule.  We would then award a task (services) or delivery (supplies‐items) order against that vehicle.

Requests for Proposals (RFPs)

11

Overview of Postings:  RFPs

• Requests for proposals are used in negotiated acquisitions to communicate Government requirement to prospective contractors and to solicit proposals.  

• RFPs are posted to FedBizOpps.• Most will be posted as a combined synopsis (required 15 days) and solicitation (required 30 days) date of 45 days.

Reading a Government Forecast• A forecast will give you clues as to what  procurement strategy was used 

last time the service was purchased.• If a prior effort is up for recompete then this may have a bearing on 

strategy, small business set aside, SDVOSB, HUBZone set aside, 8(a), etc.• All Agencies that follow the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) are 

required to set all efforts less than $150K aside for small businesses unless a justification has been submitted to the small business specialist that shows a compelling reason a SB cannot do the work.

• Look at the dates of the estimated solicitation, target award dates and ultimate contract end date.  These will give you clues as to when to start looking at RFI postings or RFQ postings.

• Look at the contract type used last time this was procured.  This will give you a clue as to the procurement strategy for this effort.
