What is RFP?

RFP is a document that solicits proposal, often made through a bidding process, by an agency or company interested in procurement of a commodity, service, or valuable asset.

RFP stands for Request for Proposal. RFP is a document that solicits proposal, often made through a bidding process, by an agency or company interested in procurement of a commodity, service, or valuable asset.

The term matters when teams need a shared definition across planning, finance reviews, sales reporting, and weekly execution conversations. Without a common definition, the same metric can drift in meaning across functions.

Inside OKRindo, RFP is most useful when it is tied to a decision. Use it to review progress, surface risk early, and choose the next action with clearer context.
