Both public and private organizations spend millions of dollars each year
developing requests for proposal (RFPs). Too often, these requests are
poorly written, incomplete¿and ineffective. The Request for Proposal
Handbook is today¿s only comprehensive source of information on writing
effective RFPs. Updated and greatly expanded to provide current laws,
regulations, and examples of effective RFPs, it now also includes two
disks to give readers easy access to more than 600 pages of actual
reference documents.
