Attachment F - sample of gangs of 5.doc

This is an attachment document from the Wisconsin Department of Administration, State Bureau of Procurement, dated August 1997, providing a previous sample specification for printed tags in connection with a printing bid opportunity. The document references the "F-M-23, RETAINED" tag procurement by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP). The finished size of a gang of five tags is 6.25" x 3.25", with individual tags measuring 3.25" x 1.25". Each gang includes five individually punched holes reinforced on both front and back sides with 5/8" red rope patches. The specifications include four partial slits per gang of five tags, positioned between tags from the clipped left edge to 1/8" from the right edge, with trimmed left edge corners on individual tags. This attachment serves as a reference sample for bidders to understand the exact manufacturing and finishing requirements for the tag production.

The document provides visual and written specifications detailing the precise construction standards for the printed tags, including hole placement, reinforcement patches, slit configurations, and edge treatments. The sample demonstrates the "gangs of 5" configuration that bidders must replicate in their proposals and production. No pricing terms, quantities, response deadlines, or award information are included in this attachment, as it functions solely as a technical specification reference for manufacturing standards and quality assurance purposes.
