During which process must security be considered when acquiring new software?

Security must be addressed in the request for proposal (RFP) so that required security features, procedures, assurances, and contractual tasks are specified before vendors prepare proposals. NIST SP 800-64 Rev. 1 identifies RFPs and statements of work as vehicles for acquiring information-security requirements.
