解説
問 32
Incorrectア
Collecting information from vendor companies to grasp technical issues and feasibility describes an RFI (Request For Information). It comes at a stage before the RFP, its purpose being to gather information prior to requesting proposals, which differs from an RFP that asks for the submission of a proposal.
Incorrectイ
Defining the performance requirements demanded of the new system describes requirements definition. Requirements definition is work in which the orderer compiles the needed functions and performance, and differs from an RFP, which requests a proposal from vendors, in both its purpose and its deliverables.
Incorrectウ
Listing the matters agreed upon regarding the level of service quality describes an SLA (Service Level Agreement). An SLA is a document that fixes service quality at the contract and operation stage, and differs from an RFP, which solicits proposals before a vendor is selected, in both its stage and its role.
- エ
正解 An RFP (Request For Proposal) is a document that an orderer planning to introduce a new system creates and presents to vendor companies, showing the purpose of introducing the system, an overview of its functions, the budget, the delivery deadline, and so on, in order to request the submission of a concrete proposal (proposal content and a quotation) that meets these. Choice エ, “presenting to vendor companies the purpose of introducing the system, an overview of its functions, etc., and requesting them to submit a proposal”, is exactly this definition and is the most appropriate. Each vendor that receives the RFP submits a proposal, and the orderer compares them to select a vendor.
ここがポイント
- RFP (Request For Proposal) = a document in which the orderer shows vendors the purpose of introduction, an overview of functions, etc., and requests the submission of a proposal. The vendor is selected based on it.
- Distinguishing similar terms: if the purpose is information gathering it is an RFI, if it defines functions and performance it is requirements definition, and if it sets service quality it is an SLA. The core of an RFP is that it “solicits proposals”.
