Document background
The Request For Proposal And Request For Quotation document is a critical procurement tool used in Switzerland when organizations need to solicit comprehensive proposals and detailed pricing from potential suppliers. It is particularly valuable for complex procurement needs where both technical capabilities and commercial terms need to be evaluated. The document is structured to comply with Swiss procurement laws and regulations, including cantonal requirements where applicable, and can be used for both public and private sector procurement. It typically includes detailed specifications, evaluation criteria, legal requirements, and response templates, allowing for a standardized comparison of supplier offerings. This format is especially useful when the procurement requires a balanced assessment of quality, methodology, and pricing, enabling organizations to make well-informed supplier selection decisions based on both technical merit and commercial value.
