FreeLists / webproducers / [webproducers] Re: Reveal actual budget in RFP?

[Todd R.Warfel <lists@xxxxxxxx>]

Tom,

I would recommend including everything you want/need in the RFP. 
Typically, when we respond to an RFP, we explain each item in the 
"recommended solution," provide a rough timeline which includes all 
these items, then price each item out by line-item. That way, if there 
are certain items we need to exclude based on budget or time, then we 
can cut and re-estimate if necessary, but you'll still have a ballpark 
idea of the cost and time.
