5 Part 5: V-Modell Reference Work Products

5.5 Content-Related Product Dependencies

5.5.50 Requirements as Part of Request for Proposal and Contracts

Content-dependent Work Products:

Request for Proposal, Requirements Specification, Contract, Contract Addendum

When a complete system is put up for bidding, the state of the »Requirements Specification becomes a component of the »Request for Proposal.

Depending on the award procedure, it may be possible to renegotiate changes in the »Requirements Specification that emerged after the mailing of the »Request for Proposal. If this happens before the »Offers are submitted, public purchasers may have to grant an extension of the closing date and inform all possible »Sub-Suppliers.

The state of the »Requirements Specification that is valid at the time of the contract is part of the »Contract. After the conclusion of the contract the contract is no longer updated, i. e. possible future changes of the »Requirements Specification do not have any impact on the contract and are settled by way of contract addenda (see »Contract Addendum).
