RFPs can be great...they can also be horrible. Love seeing some of the ridiculousness that companies want to see in a demo or as part of a proposal.

Silliest thing thing found in an RFP

I once had to get my GC to sign an agreement promising we wouldn't take any of the client's employees hostage before I could submit an RFP... it was for a large, multinational corporation that operated in some wartorn countries, so apparently, that was necessary.
Holy sh*t that's bizarre.ย I assume the GC didn't have any redlines to send back on that request...ย ย
You had to physically turn in packets in specialized envelopes that were hard to find. Oh and original signatures had to be in blue ink.
Blue ink is for sure strange
I'm an OEM rep but I think it can be an issue on both sides. I've had plenty of deals that go well and the VAR and I work extremely well together and I've had total train wrecks where it was obvious that we had different objectives.
