We are accepting RFPs (Requests for Proposals) on critical development points.
Here is a template:
General Process
OSE is accepting Requests for Proposals based on this process:
- OSE creates initial Requirement
- Review Board: For complex problems, a Review Board reviews the Requirement to determine soundness of systems requirements - ie, that no critical components are missing from the design.
- Requierement and RFP is posted online - on OSE Website, on Facebook, and is cross posted on Open Manufacturing, OSHWA mailing list, Ouishare, P2P Foundation, and Hackerspaces.
- There is a 1-2 week period for accepting Proposals.
- Review Board reviews proposals, suggestions are made, and bid is posted for Crowd Funding.
- General audiences as well as the Open Hardware Collaborative (Crowd Design, Review, and Funding) members (to be created - based on nonprofit collaboration of key Engineering Bidding Sites) are invited to chip in
- OSE builds out the design at Factor e Farm pending success. Designer is invited to participate.
Proposal Submission
Proposal is submitted via a submission form, whose results are shown for transparency at http://opensourceecology.org/development-requests-for-proposals/
