Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 99

Ned is the program manager for his organization and he's considering some new materials for his program. He and his team have never worked with these materials before and he wants to ask the vendor for some additional information, a demon, and even some samples. What type of a document should Ned send to the vendor?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, RFI (Request for Information), which is used when an organization seeks additional information about products or services. RFP (Request for Proposal) is used for soliciting proposals for a project, RFQ (Request for Quotation) is focused on pricing, and IFB (Invitation for Bid) is for soliciting bids on a project, none of which fit Ned's need for information and samples.
