[Publib] database rfp

[Joyce MacDonald]

Greetings-
Does anyone have any advice, experience or input on doing an rfp, 
request for quote or proving sole source proof when trying to buy 
databases?  The database that we're interested in would be either 
Mango or Tell Me more.  They're not sole source in terms of language 
databases, but each database is not available from different vendors.
Any advice is appreciated-
Joyce
