The cooperation of the members of the team that handles the project is so important to make the task easier and faster.

Send RFP (Request for Proposal) to every candidate
This part is important to have an exact idea of how the candidates will provide their proposals based on the requirements being asked in the RFP. It is recommended to give a timeframe for the vendors in submitting their formal proposals so you and your team will have enough time to analyze all the proposals.
Pick the right vendor that fits well on the company’s criteria
Once all the proposals are submitted, it is high time to select the right vendor as voted by the whole team. The winner should be notified at once so the project should start in the soonest time possible.
