    You should write the boss and tell them that he spent more money on having an "rfp" put together via whoever is working for him that, most likely, is trying to be an over achiever than it cost for the actual logo.

    I've seen that more than a few times - boss tells assistant to get proposal, assistant goes overboard and then some on putting together these rfp's, then over analyzes everything and sells whatever she/he likes w/o any real knowledge, all for something that is bottom feeding budget.
    I guess they feel important for controlling the situation.

    If you want the job, befriend the assistant. Just be prepared for bottom feeding pricing (if they are crowdsourcing, they don't value any interaction and my guess is that 99% of the rfp is bs copy/pasted from something he/she found online).
