    What is a supply chain software RFP?

    A Request for Proposal (RFP) is a structured document buyers send to vendors to compare solutions on the same playing field. A good RFP turns vague vendor demos into apples-to-apples answers on requirements, integrations, pricing, and security so you can pick with confidence.

    Key features

    • Clear requirements

      Spell out what the system must do, what is nice-to-have, and what is out of scope.

    • Evaluation criteria

      Define how you will score answers so the decision is objective, not based on the loudest sales pitch.

    • Integrations & data

      List the systems that must connect (TMS, WMS, ERP, accounting) and the data formats you need.

    • Security & compliance

      Capture SOC 2, GDPR, data residency, and insurance requirements upfront so deal-breakers surface early.

    • Pricing model

      Ask vendors to quote in your model (per user, per shipment, flat) so you can compare totals, not just rate cards.

    • Implementation & timeline

      Get vendors to commit to a realistic go-live plan with named owners and milestones.
