Explanation

An RFI (Request for Information) is the appropriate document when the project manager needs to learn more about a vendor's capabilities, services, or offerings before committing to a procurement approach. It is an exploratory document with no obligation on either side. An RFP (A) is used when requirements are known and vendors are asked to propose solutions. An MOU (B) is a non-binding agreement that outlines mutual intentions between parties. A SOW (D) defines the specific work a vendor is contracted to perform - it is created after vendor selection, not before.
