CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 130

Because the project team lacks hands-on experience, the project manager has decided to involve a third-party vendor to complete the development of a product. Which of the following documents should the project manager expedite FIRST?

Answer options

• A. RFI
• B. RFP
• C. RFQ
• D. RFB

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, RFI (Request for Information), as it is used to gather information about potential vendors and their capabilities before proceeding with further procurement steps. The other options, RFP (Request for Proposal), RFQ (Request for Quotation), and RFB (Request for Bid), are subsequent steps that require more detailed information about specific solutions, which can only be done after understanding the available options.
