DNR OAC BOOKLETS BID REQUEST 4-26 .docx

This is a printing services bid request issued by the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget for the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) OAC Booklets. The project requires the production of 5,000 booklets with specific print specifications: 16 total pages at a finished size of 4 inches by 11 inches, featuring 4-page covers printed on 80# gloss cover stock and 12 pages of text on 80# gloss text stock, both in 4-color process with bleeds. The booklets must be saddle-stitched along the 11-inch spine and packed in cartons for shipment. Vendors must submit their bids with a detailed estimate attached, and completion of the project is required within 10 business days following proof approval. Proofs will be provided electronically in PDF format.

Only prequalified vendors are eligible to submit bids for this contract. The state awards bids based on best price and value rather than lowest bid alone, meaning factors such as past quality performance and ability to meet specifications may influence the selection decision. Completed booklets must be shipped to Bradley M. Schumann, Print Consultant, at the General Services Building located at 7461 Crowner Drive, Dimondale, Michigan 48821. Vendors should include sample materials with their submissions to demonstrate their capabilities and quality standards.
