What are RFPs, RFIs, RFCs, CFPs, RFQs, RFTs, IPRs and DIPRs?
Requests for proposals (RFPs), requests for information (RFIs), and requests for comment (RFCs) are documents that are published to solicit input into OGC’s formal Technical Committee process for consensus-based development of open interfaces. Calls for Participation (CFPs), Requests for Quotation (RFQs), and Requests for Technology (RFTs) are documents that are published prior to the launch of OGC Interoperability Initiatives (testbeds, pilot projects, planning studies etc.). Interoperability Program Reports (IPRs) and Draft Interoperability Program Reports (DIPRs) are generated in these Interoperability Initiatives.
