The RFB seeks to establish a blanket contract for consumable parts and supplies for three offset printing press models: Ryobi 3404 DI, AB Dick 9985, and Heidelberg GTO 52ZP, to support UWM's Print and Copy Services Department. The bid is organized into three lots: Lot 1 covers offset printing plates (aluminum plates for AB Dick and Heidelberg presses, and waterless polyester-based digital media rolls for Ryobi presses); Lot 2 covers blankets specific to each press model; and Lot 3 covers other consumable parts and supplies such as rollers, sucker feet, and cleaning supplies. Bidders are not required to bid on all lots and may be awarded individual lots. The original RFB release date was April 12, 2019, with a deadline for questions on April 18, 2019 at 2 p.m. CDT and a bid due date of April 24, 2019 at 12 p.m. CDT. The contract term is two years, from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2021, with three optional one-year extensions possible by mutual written consent.

Reindl Way, Milwaukee, WI. Pricing for Lots 1 and 2 must remain firm for the entire two-year initial contract period with no price increases permitted during this term; requests for price adjustments for extension periods must be submitted at least 30 days in advance and require evidence of cost increases. Bidders must be authorized distributors or dealers for the manufacturers whose products they are bidding on. All materials must be first quality and warrantied to meet the manufacturer's standard warranty with repair or replacement at no charge, including freight, for defective items within the warranty period. The award will be made by lot to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder(s), with UWM retaining the right to award individual lots to different bidders. Minority Business Enterprises and Disabled Veteran-Owned Business firms submitting qualified bids not more than 5% higher than the low bid may receive preference under Wisconsin Statutes. No public opening is scheduled for this bid; records will be available for public inspection following the award of the contract.

As such, we ask that certain pages, as indicated below, of this bid/proposal response be treated as confidential material and not be released without our written approval.

Stats. as follows: "Trade secret" means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process to which all of the following apply:

1.The information derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, andnot being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from itsdisclosure or use.
2.The information is the subject of efforts to maintain its secrecy that are reasonable under the circumstances.

We request that the following pages not be released
