Proposal Practice Questions
ProposalA proposal is an attempt to persuade someone that you are especially qualified to fill one of his or her needs in exchange for compensation. Proposals are usually written documents and come in a variety of sizes and formats. The two types of proposals are the solicited and the unsolicited. A solicited proposal is written in answer to a request. An unsolicited proposal is initiated by the proposer; no motivation is provided by the intended recipient.
RFPRFP stands for Request for Proposal. It could take form of a newspaper ad or a formal letter. Its purpose is to invite companies to offer solutions to the needs and problems of the requesting company. RFPs could be about Construction, Financial Services, Security, Interior Design, IT services etc. Generally a qualifying criterion is given in an RFP along with related details.
