This is a bid request job description issued by the Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services for the production of PT-1 Property Tags. The request specifies a quantity of 50,000 tags with a finished size of 5 1/4 x 2 5/8 inches printed in black ink on one side of #6 13 point manila tag stock.

Products must be wrapped in bundles of 100 and packed in cartons not exceeding 40 lbs each. An electronic file has been provided by the department, and vendors are required to submit a color PDF proof for approval prior to production. The department reserves the right to award bids based on best price and value rather than lowest cost alone, taking into consideration factors such as past quality performance and vendor ability to meet specifications. Only prequalified vendors will be considered for this bid.

Vendors must submit detailed quote letters with their bids, and failure to do so will result in automatic disqualification. The specific response deadline, due date, and award timeline are not specified in this job description document. The department's evaluation criteria emphasizes value to the state and vendor reliability, meaning that vendors with prior quality concerns or demonstrated inability to meet requirements may be rejected regardless of pricing.
