ITPEC FE Subject A April 2026 Question 48
ITPEC FE Subject A April 2026 — Question 48 of 60
RFP (Request for Proposal) belongs in blank B.
The four boxes are the standard procurement sequence:
- •A — RFI (Request for Information) — describe the purpose and the business, and ask vendors what they can offer
- •B — RFP (Request for Proposal) — name the target system and the conditions, and ask vendors to submit a proposal
- •C — Selecting a provider — choose a procurement source from the proposals and the vendors' capabilities
- •D — Concluding a contract — record the mutually agreed roles and responsibilities
Answer (c)
Why not others:
- (b) RFI — belongs in A; it gathers information before requirements are fixed
- (d) Selecting a provider — is step C, which the figure already describes separately
- (a) Concluding a contract — is step D
Key rule: RFI asks "what can you offer?", RFP asks "what will you do, on these terms, for what price?". The RFP always follows the RFI and precedes selection.
