Requesting a proposal and awarding a contract for provision of services is implemented by a local computing system, a remote computing system, and a service provider system. Proposal parameters and a service area requirement that define request for proposal (RFP) are used to screen a list of service providers. A short list of service providers is defined based on the service providers' qualifications. Using a single action, an RFP is simultaneously submitted to the service providers on the short list. A service provider retrieves from the remote computing system stored content for use in preparing a response to the RFP. The service provider system submits the response to the requesting party via the remote computing system. RFPs and responses thereto are tracked, with the status of the RFPs and responses being reported using various indicators. A contract for the provision of services is awarded to a winning service provider.
