RFQ

Request for Quote

A simple request to send a price for clearly defined items or services.

What it means

A Request for Quote (RFQ) is a simple purchase. The agency has defined what it wants and just needs a price. Responses are fast, and if you can be competitive on price it is often worth answering.

RFQs sit at the low-effort end of the spectrum. There is no long technical proposal — the buyer is comparing quotes.
