2-27 Issue RFPs and Publicize Requirements

Once the proposal evaluation strategy has been developed, the RFP is issued. Publicizing purchasing opportunities (including RFPs and prequalification opportunities) is the process of publicly announcing an RFP. Purchasing opportunities are publicized to create, promote, and ensure adequate competition. In addition, publicizing purchase opportunities is an effective way of communicating Postal Service requirements to SMWOBs.
