Document background
The Request for Proposal and Request for Quotation (RFP/RFQ) document is a crucial procurement instrument used in Belgium for soliciting comprehensive proposals and detailed pricing from potential suppliers. It is particularly relevant when organizations need to make significant purchases or engage services while ensuring transparency, fair competition, and value for money. The document must comply with Belgian procurement law, including the Law of 17 June 2016 and relevant EU directives, making it suitable for both public and private sector procurement. It typically includes detailed specifications, evaluation criteria, legal requirements, and submission guidelines, enabling organizations to make informed decisions while maintaining regulatory compliance. This document type is especially important in Belgium's multilingual business environment and is often used for complex purchases requiring both technical expertise and competitive pricing.
