The document provides information about the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and Request for Proposals (RFP) processes used in procurement. It explains that an RFQ is used to gather information about the experience and qualifications of firms to perform a service, without requesting pricing information. An RFQ is used either as a screening device to qualify firms for further selection steps or to select the most qualified firms. On the other hand, an RFP requires a response to a specific scope of work or tasks to be addressed. It may include information about scheduling, budget, and fees. The document also mentions that sole source procurement is generally prohibited, but can be authorized by the County Manager under certain circumstances. Lastly, it mentions the key issue of advancing the Purchasing Division's capabilities through the use of internet business tools and improving vendor access.
