Web RFP Template – Emerald Strategies I designed this template for organizations and companies who are at the start of their Web development project and are looking for a professional approach to preparing an RFP for the market. It has adapted from presentations and seminars hosted by NPower (formerly Technology Works for Good) and the Small Business Administration S.C.O.R.E. workshop series, and offered as a public service. I’ve cross-posted a word version of the Web RFP Template at my Squibd site and the html version is found here. When I started my business back in 2001, one of the first articles I posted was this Web RFP Template freebie. I hope this best practice offering helps make your Web development acquisition duties a little less reinventing-the-wheel and a lot more turn-key. Describe the Web project you wish to undertake.What problems will this technology project solve or what new capabilities will it provide for your organization? Tell vendors about your organization.
