Hi Lynn: Great work. I made some track changes in the document. I am not sure if we want to include more detailed Terms and Conditions of the RFP, but I think that is up to ICANN. I added just two terms and conditions obligations: (1) IP assignment - assuming that we want to retain the IP rights; and (2) provided a more specific time for response. Normally RFPs should have several more, but since this is an ICANN RFP template, I think it is better for ICANN to determine what other T&Cs are required, if any. I have also added some language that ensures age and gender equity including the inclusion of developing countries. In light of that, I wonder whether 10 countries are sufficient and we may want to increase it to 15 and have at least 5 developing countries included, but I am not sure how much that will affect the budget.

Dear All, Attached is an initial draft of an RFP for the Consumer Trust research work. I have used a previous ICANN RFP authored by Liz Gasster as an example.
As you will see, the timeline to get this done by our meeting in September is going to be a crunch. So asking that everyone review this at their earliest convenience so we can finalize it and issue.
I also have developed a list of prospective companies for distribution of the RFP. Will be sending that later this morning.
