A Request for Information is not a method to solicit personal and professional services. Agencies may issue Requests for Information ("RFI") to the vendor community and other stakeholders prior to issuing a solicitation to aid in developing solicitation requirements which will result in the best value for the Agency. Issuing an RFI does not obligate an Agency to issue a solicitation.
