RFP Response Framework

Create an RFP response for the following opportunity:

RFP: [Issuing organization] seeking architectural services for

Timeline: Design through construction administration, 24 months
Selection criteria (from RFP):

- 15% Project management approach
- 10% Fee

Our firm:

Response sections:

   - Understanding of the project's unique challenges
   - One distinctive insight that shows we have done our homework
   - Clear enthusiasm without desperation

2. FIRM QUALIFICATIONS (2-3 pages)
