7 tips to writing the perfect LED lighting RFQ
Writing a Request for Quotation (RFQ) initially sounds like a headache, especially for a large-scale project, but it doesn’t have to be difficult. Asking the right questions early on can save you a lot of time and money in the long run.
At Midstream Lighting, we receive a lot of RFQs from organisations around the world wanting either to upgrade their existing lighting solutions or start from scratch with a new LED lighting solution. Some of them are clear, detailed, and provide the right kind of information to help us quickly write a great proposal. Others, not so much.
Writing a RFQ can be daunting, but with the right guidance, you can draw up one that's useful and concise.
A Request for Quotation document is the face of your company to potential collaborators so it’s important to compose them well. Good ones lead to good proposals, good proposals lead to better working relationships, which lead to better projects and outcomes. What should you include if you want to write a good one? What details do vendors need to know about your project to bid accurately? What questions should you be asking them to assess their fitness and capability?
