RFP to Outsource Customer Support

More and more companies are using RFPs to outsource customer support, even for small teams.

But issuing an RFP and managing the process can be stressful and time consuming.

We assembled this guide to help you understand the process of crafting an effective RFP to outsource your customer support team. In addition, we’ve included an RFP template you can download and use as-is.

What is an RFP?

Request for Proposals (RFPs) are business documents that companies use to announce a project. RFPs typically contain valuable information about the customer support team being outsourced, such as a company profile, ticket types, ticket volume, channels, tech stack, hours of operation, contract terms and conditions, and criteria you are using to make your decision.

In addition, they contain all the questions that you want each submitter to answer. Building your own RFP from scratch can be time consuming. That’s why we’ve created this guide, which comes with a template that you can download for free.
