Responding to Government Solicitations

This presentation is for companies that are ready to start responding to government solicitations in order to secure a government contract.

These solicitations may be in the form of requests for proposals (RFP), requests for quotes (RFQ) or requests for information (RFI). When solicitations are published, they require a response including specific information in order to be considered for an award of a contract. This webinar will describe the process of finding, understanding and responding to solicitations, emphasizing RFPs. The format and details of the solicitation process and the forms used in the responses required will be described.
