Document background
The Request For Offer (RFO) is a essential procurement document used in the United Arab Emirates when organizations seek to obtain detailed proposals for goods or services through a formal, structured process. This document type is particularly relevant in the UAE business environment where procurement processes are heavily regulated and must comply with Federal Law No. 2 of 2019 and related regulations. An RFO typically includes comprehensive technical specifications, commercial requirements, evaluation criteria, and submission guidelines, ensuring transparency and fair competition. It serves as a precursor to contract formation and is commonly used in both government and private sector procurement, especially for significant purchases or complex services where detailed technical and commercial proposals are required.
