About this vehicle
The 550-A3 vehicle procures specialized multi-media commodities for license plate production, exclusively supporting the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's (TDCJ) manufacturing operations at the Wynne Unit License Plate Factory in Huntsville. Procurable items include reflectorized sheeting materials, protective film liners, thermal transfer ribbons, digital printer ink, thermal printer print heads, and digital license plate printing equipment with associated accessories and supplies. These materials and equipment enable TDCJ to manufacture general issue, digital, and motorcycle license plates to precise technical specifications.
The 550-A3 is a term-type indefinite delivery vehicle managed by the CPA Contract Management division of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, with geographic coverage limited to Texas. The master vehicle was awarded on November 15, 2024, with a completion date of August 31, 2027. The sole prime contractor is 3M Company, which holds exclusive rights to fulfill all orders under this vehicle.
The IDV has generated 22 individual contract awards with award dates spanning from August 2022 through August 2025, demonstrating sustained demand for license plate production materials. Individual award values range from approximately $6,000 to over $2.3 million, with cumulative procurement reaching substantial levels across the contract period. Awards consistently reflect TDCJ's operational requirements, including thermal transfer ribbons (6 to 900 rolls per award), protective film liners (113,400 to 1,436,400 linear feet), and reflective sheeting materials (24,300 to 1,417,500 linear feet). All awards are tax-exempt and designated exclusively for TDCJ use.
