This is a Purchase Requisition document issued by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for the production and delivery of OC Access service coupon books. OCTA seeks a qualified vendor to produce, print, and deliver coupon books from artwork provided by the Authority on an as-needed basis with no guaranteed usage over a four-year contract term. The scope of work is not limited to ACCESS fare coupons only, as the Authority may require the vendor to print new coupons as needed, with or without document security features. The average yearly requirement is approximately 65,000 coupons. The requisition was entered on November 12, 2025, with a requested date of the same date, and the contract term spans from June 1, 2026, through May 31, 2030. Written questions or clarifications must be submitted by 2:00 p.m. on June 29, 2026, with responses to be issued via addendum by July 1, 2026. An award will be made to the lowest, responsive, responsible firm on a lump sum basis, and the successful firm may be awarded without further discussion.

The total contract value is $40,000.00 for the four-year term, with sales tax to be charged but not included in the per-coupon amount. The budget allocation is structured as follows: FY25-26 (June 1-30, 2026) at $834; FY26-27 at $10,000; FY27-28 at $10,000; FY28-29 at $10,000; and FY29-30 (July 1, 2029-May 31, 2030) at $9,166. This purchase requisition replaces a previous contract (C22304) with Southland Printing. The requisition is not grant-funded and does not require department involvement beyond the identified project manager, Jessica Lopez. By submitting a quote, firms certify they are not subject to any Ukraine/Russia-related economic sanctions imposed by the State of California or the United States Government, and all firms agree to comply with applicable Equal Employment Opportunity Laws and Regulations.
