A Request for Interest (RFI), Request for Qualifications (RFQ), or Request for Proposal (RFP) can be used by an airport sponsor to solicit interest, qualifications, or proposals from qualified and experienced parties interested in providing general aviation products and services and/or developing facilities as a fixed base operator, specialized aviation service operator, or non-commercial entity. A properly managed RFI, RFQ, or RFP process and submittal evaluation will ensure a defensible decision and, by utilizing industry best practices and clearly defined processes and evaluation criteria, an outcome that will have the highest likelihood of success.
