Because an RFI is issued when the need is for information or planning purposes, it must include Provision A-2: Solicitation for Information or Planning Purposes. RFIs may be publicized via the Government-wide Point of Entry (GPE), the single point where most government purchasing opportunities and contract awards can be accessed electronically by the public on the Internet at http:⁄⁄www.fedbizopps.gov. Publicizing is discussed in detail in Section 2-27, Issue RFPs and Publicize Requirements.
