Where and How to Search

If the task at hand is more technical in nature — say, installation and implementation of a shipping system, or a redesign of your warehouse layout — send formal Requests for Proposals (RFPs). An RFP is a process of soliciting proposals from consultants who may be both interested in and appropriate for the work. It’s a good way to make an apples-to-apples comparison among consultants offering similar technical services.
