Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) • What is the purpose or intent of the RFI? • The RFI will be used by our Sourcing team to build a business case which describes the viability of a product category and prospective suppliers for Sourcing. • When will suppliers be asked to bid on the Sourced product? • Once the Sourcing steering committee reviews and approves the business case the negotiation process will begin.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) What can you tell me regarding the specification of the product to be sourced? The RFI is the beginning of the Sourcing process where we capture information and define the scope of the event. Specifications may be modified as a result of the information gathered and the product evaluation. Formal specifications will be provided during the negotiation phase after the Business Case has been approved. What are the volumes for which we’ll be asked to bid? If you are selected as a prospective Sourced supplier volumes will be made available to you during the negotiation process following the Steering Committee’s approval.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) What are the next steps in sourcing and how can we best prepare? Complete and return the RFI and sign and return the NDA by the deadline date specified in the RFI. Identify a single point of contact who will be readily available. Identify your internal team of subject matter experts and conduct initial internal meetings to determine opportunities for production and supply chain efficiencies and propose sales and marketing strategies to drive incremental sales to Sysco.
