Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Extranet is Extranets represent another variation of the Internet. Extranets are networks that sit outside the protected internal network of an organization and use Internet software and communication protocols for electronic commerce and for use by outside suppliers or customers. Extranets are more private than a website that is open to the public but are more open than an intranet, which can be accessed only by employees. Intranets sit behind firewalls or other barriers and may not normally be available to people outside of the organization.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: All aspects of the RFP must be detailed and precise to facilitate an accurate response from the vendor. If questions are vague or poorly written, they could easily be misinterpreted by the vendor. For example, an ambiguous question might lead a vendor to indicate that the system meets a requirement when in fact it does not. It is advantageous to limit the number of requirements to those that are most important and to produce a simple and straightforward document. If an RFP is too lengthy, it will cost both the organization and the vendor a great deal of time and money to prepare and evaluate. It is difficult to evaluate a long document that is not focused on the important issues. Finally, a well-written RFP provides a framework that allows the steering committee to more accurately evaluate the vendor's proposal.
