AI-027 CWD Tag 8-25.docx

This document is a printing services bid request from the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget for AI-027 CWD Tags. The project involves producing 5,000 tags with specific technical requirements, including a 7 x 3.125 inch finish size, printed on 12 mil Teslin weatherproof stock. The tags must feature chronological numbering in three locations, a corresponding barcode, a reinforced eyelet with wire, and 30-tooth perforations at 1-7/8" and 6-3/16" from the top. The starting number is 135756, and the tags will be printed in black and Pantone yellow, with a color PDF proof required for approval before production.

The bid specifies that only prequalified vendors will be considered, and detailed quote letters are mandatory, with failure to submit potentially resulting in bid disqualification. Packing requirements include shrink-wrapping tags in bundles of 50, with the top number ending in the last digit of 1. The Department of Technology, Management & Budget will award the bid based on best price and value, understanding that the lowest bidder may not necessarily receive the contract if they cannot meet all requirements or have past quality concerns. No specific pricing details or funding sources are provided in the document.
