1. Upload Your RFP Document

Start by uploading the RFP document you want to respond to.

2-5 minutes

Navigate to your WizardRFP dashboard and click the "New Proposal" button. You can upload RFP documents in several formats:

  • **PDF files** - Most common format for government and enterprise RFPs
  • **Word documents (.docx)** - Often used for smaller RFPs and SOWs
  • **Text files (.txt)** - Simple format for basic requirements

Pro Tip: If you have a multi-part RFP with separate documents for technical requirements, pricing instructions, and terms & conditions, upload the main technical requirements document first. You can add supporting documents later.

Pro Tips

  • Ensure your RFP document is clear and readable - avoid scanned PDFs if possible
  • If the RFP is password-protected, remove the password before uploading
  • Large files (>50MB) may take longer to process
