Fair Procurement Assessment
Save time and attract the right agencies
You need to put a communications project out to bid. How many agencies will you invite to bid? Will you include your budget? Will you ask for a proposal right away, or request references first? Every choice you make determines how many proposals you’ll have to review later, how well you’ll be able to compare them, and who will even want to participate.
With this quick guide, you’ll walk through the five phases of an assignment—from preparation to the evaluation meeting—in about three minutes. You’ll receive a score for each phase and a list of action items, each with an explanation of the benefits. Don’t have a specific assignment yet? Just read the tips, or download the checklist as a PDF.
