Explanation
In the procurement process, an RFQ (Request for Quote) solicits pricing only and provides minimal technical detail. An RFI (Request for Information) is specifically designed to gather detailed technical specifications, capabilities, and product information from vendors before making procurement decisions. Since the CPO and SPM received RFQs but lack the technical specification data they need, the logical next step is to issue RFIs to get that information. An RFP (Request for Proposal) is a full solicitation for a complete solution proposal, which comes later in the process after specifications are understood. Providing a personal CISO summary or voiding the quotes would not formally gather the needed vendor-provided technical data.
