Question:
Pretend that you are leading a project that will implement a new course registration system for your college. You are thinking about purchasing packaged course registration software or outsourcing the job to an external consultant. Using MS word, create a 1-3 page request for proposal (RFP) to which interested vendors and consultants could respond. Make sure you cite your sources.
