LEO 2025 OSHPA REPORT PERFECT BIND BOOKLET BID REQUEST 8-26.docx

This is a bid request from the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services for the production of the LEO 2025 OSHPA Report. The project requires the printing of 150 perfect-bound booklets with specific technical specifications: 8.5 x 11 inch finish size, a 4-page 80# matte cover with 4-color bleeds, 168-page 80# matte text body, and perfect binding along the 11-inch spine. Delivery must be completed within 10 business days following proof approval, with finished materials shipped to Bradley M. Schumann, Print Consultant, at the General Services Building in Dimondale, Michigan. The department will provide an electronic PDF proof to the selected vendor. Only prequalified vendors are eligible to participate in this competitive bid process.

Award decisions will be made on the basis of best price and value to the state, meaning the lowest bid may not automatically receive the contract if quality concerns or ability to meet requirements are questioned based on past performance. Vendors must submit a detailed cost estimate as part of their bid submission; bids lacking this documentation will be rejected and not considered for award. Materials should be carton-packed for shipment upon completion of the project.
