Overview

A digital asset management (DAM) RFP is a formal document sent to prospective vendors outlining an organization’s specific needs, requirements, expectations, and goals related to managing digital assets. It is typically created in order to distribute to potential vendors to solicit proposals for a DAM system. Ultimately, it serves as a structured way for companies to gather detailed information from vendors and compare features, capabilities, and costs.

Creating an RFP will help you select and implement the best DAM system to match your long-term business requirements. The RFP will allow your business to convey its goals, assess its current workflows, and identify the key features and functionalities you require in a DAM solution.
