Write a clear Request for Proposal that gets comparable, high-quality vendor bids. Use when asked to write an RFP, a request for proposal/quote/tender, or to solicit and compare vendor proposals. Produces a complete RFP — background, scope of work, requirements, evaluation criteria with weights, submission instructions, and timeline — structured so responses are easy to compare apples-to-apples.
What to give it
▸What you're buying — the product/service/project and the problem it solves.
▸Scope — what's in and explicitly out, deliverables, and any integration/constraints.
▸Requirements — must-haves vs. nice-to-haves (functional, technical, security, compliance).
▸Evaluation priorities — what matters most (price, capability, support, security, timeline) for weighting.
▸Logistics — budget range (if shared), timeline, submission format, and contact.
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓Requirements are split into mandatory vs. desirable so bids can be screened and scored
✓Evaluation criteria are explicit and weighted **before** responses arrive (not reverse-engineered to a favourite)
✓Vendor questions are phrased to produce comparable, apples-to-apples answers
✓Scope states what's explicitly out, not just what's in
✓Submission format and limits are specified so responses are easy to evaluate
✓A clear timeline with a questions window and deadlines is included
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not leave evaluation criteria unstated — undefined scoring invites bias and disputes
Do not write open-ended questions that produce incomparable marketing answers
Do not blur must-haves and nice-to-haves — vendors (and evaluators) can't prioritise
Do not omit out-of-scope — scope creep starts in a vague RFP
Do not set the weights after seeing the bids — decide what matters up front
