About this file

This is a Notice of Intent to Award issued by the State of Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services for Request for Quote (RFQ) #27*0044 concerning the production of decals for equipment models EQP 2020, EQP 2030, and EQP 2225. The project requires 250 units of EQP 2020 decals, 70 units of EQP 2030 decals, and 300 units of EQP 2225 decals. Four vendors submitted bids for evaluation: SMART SOURCE, IMAGE PRINTING, SHAYLESLIE, and WHITLAM. The evaluation process considered multiple factors including pricing, turnaround time, price hold duration, and Michigan-based printing capabilities. WHITLAM has been identified as the recommended vendor based on best value to the State of Michigan, determined through a combination of evaluation criteria factors and price. Protests of the award decision must be submitted electronically through the Vendor Self Service system within the deadline specified on the Notice of Intent to Award. The print consultant contact is Brad Schumann at 517-636-6143 or SchumannB@michigan.gov, with general inquiries directed to Andrew Hale at 517-636-0092.

WHITLAM's pricing for the three product lines totaled $2,113.91 (EQP 2020 at $647.50, EQP 2030 at $651.91, and EQP 2225 at $815.00), which exceeded the lowest bidder SMART SOURCE at $435.00 total. However, WHITLAM was selected for offering superior value through an 18-week delivery window and price hold guarantee of 25 points, compared to competitors' 10-week turnaround, along with demonstrated experience in Michigan-based printing operations and a value rating of 25 points. SMART SOURCE, the lowest-cost option at $145.00 per item across all three product lines, was not recommended despite competitive pricing. No set-asides, incumbent information, or specific contract term details are identified in this notice.
