Yes the RFP process is long and drawn out however, there is another process called "directed procurement" that bypasses all of the competition part of the process with only contract and price negotiations left on the table. This type of product would qualify for the short process if that is what the customer wants. Their call.

Further, if the customer wants and Bourque Industries agrees, BORK could be under contract with nothing more than a letter contract and leave contract and price negotiations for later. (I don't like them but if it gets the train going then great) There are always ways around the formal process when there is a need.
