2025 EGLE REFLECTIVE SIGNAGE BID REQUEST 4-25.docx

This document is a bid request from the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget (DTMB) Printing Services for the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) for reflective signage. The bid is for 100-200 aluminum signs with a 9" x 12" finish size, featuring 4/0 color printing, .080 thickness aluminum with 3M Scotchlite reflective coating, designed for outdoor use and to withstand harsh Michigan weather conditions. The signs require double punch holes for bolt mounting, and vendors must submit a detailed estimate to be considered. The project must be completed within 15 business days after proof approval, with an electronic PDF proof required. Only prequalified vendors will be considered for the award.

The bid will be awarded based on best price and value, with the understanding that the lowest bidder may not automatically receive the contract if they cannot meet all requirements or have past quality concerns. Vendors must attach a detailed estimate to their bid, and failure to do so will result in disqualification. The signs will be shipped to Bradley M. Schumann, a Print Consultant located in Dimondale, MI. The bid emphasizes the need for UV-resistant signage that can endure extended exposure to Michigan's challenging environmental conditions, indicating a focus on durability and long-term performance.
