According to the FAR Contracting officers may request competitive proposals if sealed bids are not appropriate. Because of differences in areas such as law, regulations, and business practices, it is generally necessary to conduct discussions with offerors relative to proposed contracts to be made and performed outside the United States and its outlying areas. Therefore a request for proposals (RFP) is issued when the award will be based on more than price.
