EGLE SELF COVER ACTIVITY COLORING BOOKLETS BID REQUEST 8-26.docx

This is a bid request document issued by the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services for the production of EGLE Self Cover Activity Coloring Booklets. The project requires the production of 1,000 to 2,000 eight-page self-cover booklets with a finished size of 8.5 x 11 inches. The booklets must be saddle-stitched along the left 11-inch spine and printed with black ink on 80% recycled 60# offset white text stock for both cover and interior pages. Vendors must submit electronic PDF proofs, and completion is required within 15 to 20 business days following proof approval. Finished materials should be shipped to Bradley M. Schumann, Print Consultant, at the General Services Building in Dimondale, Michigan.

All bids must include a detailed cost estimate; bids submitted without this documentation will not be considered. Only prequalified vendors are eligible to bid on this project. Award decisions will be made based on best price and value to the state, meaning the lowest bidder may not automatically receive the award if quality concerns exist or if requirements cannot be met. Vendors should include sample materials and binding specifications with their bid submissions.
