About this file
This document is a Notice of Amendment #1 for Invitation for Bid (IFB) #2025-02A issued by the Mississippi Department of Revenue (DOR), addressing a print-on-demand contract for road and bridge registration receipts with attached decals. The amendment provides clarifications and corrections to several original bid specifications, including adjusting language about manufacturer certifications, changing plate production requirements to decal production specifications, and confirming electronic bid submission procedures. The bid submission and opening date has been postponed to April 17, 2025, with the contract requiring the successful bidder to provide 575 printers across 105 county offices and 8 departmental locations, and to maintain support during normal state and county office business hours.
The amendment details specific vendor requirements, including an initial response time of 30 minutes and an on-site response time of 4 hours, with technicians located throughout the state. The total number of decals to be produced is approximately 3,350,000, with the bidder responsible for providing printing equipment, related distribution services, and meeting the Department of Revenue's operational standards. While precise pricing details are not included in this amendment, the document emphasizes the need for a comprehensive turnkey solution that can efficiently manage the print-on-demand process for vehicle registration materials across Mississippi's governmental infrastructure.

Question #1:
“A corporate officer of the license plate manufacturer shall certify in writing that the bidding company is currently providing similar license plate manufacturing and related distribution services to other jurisdiction(s) that are similar in scope to those required herein.” Can the DOR confirm that this is used in error as this bid is for POD of road and bridge registration receipts?
Answer:
Yes, the DOR can confirm that this was used in error. It should read “A corporate officer of the bidder shall certify in writing that the bidding company is currently providing similar print on demand road and bridge registration receipt and decal services and related distribution services.”

“Each bidder must have been in business a minimum of five (5) years and provided plates to another state in the US during that time at a rate of at least 900,000 plates per year for at least one year prior to submission of its bid.” Can the DOR confirm that this is used in error as this bid is for POD of road and bridge registration receipts.

Question #3:
“The bid shall be signed by a company official with authorization to bind vendor to its provisions and submitted in a sealed envelope or package to 500 Clinton Center Dr. Clinton, MS 39056 no later than April 10, 2025.” Is the DOR open to submission of bids electronically (E.g., email)? If not, how many copies are required with the physical submission?
Answer:
Bids can be submitted electronically via MAGIC. Please refer to Section 6.1 C.
Question #4:
“The Department shall not utilize the thermal transfer printer for other non-reflective sticker printing without the expressed permission from the reflective sheeting manufacturer.” Would the DOR consider changing this from “reflective sheeting manufacturer” to “bidder?” as the bidder will be solely responsible for the project and the services provided to DOR.
Answer:
The reflective sheeting manufacturer is not the bidder. The bidder will be purchasing the sheeting from the sheeting manufacturer so it should read bidder.
