Document background
The Proposal For Consulting Services is a formal business document used when a consulting firm or individual consultant seeks to provide professional services to a client in Malaysia. It serves as the initial formal offer and forms the basis for subsequent contract negotiations. The document must comply with Malaysian law, particularly the Contracts Act 1950 and Service Tax Act 2018, while addressing key commercial and operational aspects of the proposed engagement. This document is typically used at the pre-contract stage when responding to formal requests for proposals (RFPs) or direct client inquiries, and should include comprehensive details about the proposed services, execution methodology, resource allocation, timeline, and commercial terms. The proposal needs to balance commercial attractiveness with legal protection while maintaining compliance with Malaysian business regulations and professional standards.
