As in the case of the purchase requisition, the RFQ identifies the material, quantity, and delivery date.
In addition, the RFQ contains information about the vendor to whom the request for quotation (RFQ) is sent (for example, the vendor’s name and address) and important dates for the RFQ (such as the closing date for applications, or pre-qualification date, and bid submission deadlines). RFQs can be subject to a release procedure.
