About this file
This is a bid request issued by the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services for the production and distribution of the 2026 DNR Deer Hunting Digest. The project requires the printing of 355,880 units with a finished size of 5.375" x 8.375". The digest consists of a 4-page cover in 60# white gloss text and 76 pages of interior content in 40# white gloss text (with 60# as an optional alternative), printed in 4-color with bleeds. The binding method is saddle stitch along the 8.375" edge, with packing in paper bands of 20 units. The vendor must ship directly to approximately 1,291 locations using the DTMB FedEx account and enter the SIGMA P.O. number in the FedEx third-party shipping module for tracking purposes. Electronic PDF proofs are required, and the absolute in-store delivery date is August 11, 2026, which cannot be missed.
Vendors must submit a detailed estimate with their bid or will not be considered for award. The state will evaluate bids based on best price and value rather than lowest price alone, and past quality concerns or inability to meet requirements may disqualify otherwise low bids. Only prequalified vendors are eligible to bid. Vendors must answer specific questions regarding when press-ready files and final proof approval are needed to meet the in-store due date. If vendors cannot meet exact specifications, they are invited to propose alternatives.
