The department is requesting bids for the printing of 1,500 finished units with a final size of 7 inches by 8.5 inches. The project specifications include a four-color front cover with bleed and a one-color back cover with bleed on 80-pound matte cover stock, 20 pages of 60-pound white offset text stock, and saddle stitch binding along the 8.5-inch edge. Materials must be packed in bundles of 25 and delivered within 10 business days of proof approval. Vendors must submit detailed cost estimates with their bids and provide hard copy proofs for departmental approval prior to production commencement. Electronic PDF proofs are acceptable for submission purposes.

Award of the bid will be determined based on best price and value to the state rather than solely on lowest cost, with consideration given to past quality performance and ability to meet specified requirements. Only prequalified vendors are eligible to submit bids. Bidders must ship completed materials to Bradley M. Schumann, Print Consultant, at the General Services Building in Dimondale, Michigan. Failure to submit a detailed estimate with the bid will result in the vendor being disqualified from consideration.
