sticker sample FY27 review - Revised.pdf

This file is a sticker sample review document for fiscal year 2027 related to the Illinois state procurement for printing of pressure seal renewal sticker forms. The document appears to be a visual reference or sample specification for the pressure seal renewal stickers that are the subject of two concurrent bidding opportunities (B-52198 and B-52297). The procurement seeks vendors to print pressure seal renewal forms, with the stickers serving as the physical product deliverable. The document functions as a quality control and specification reference tool to ensure bidders understand the exact format, design, and appearance requirements for the stickers being procured.

The two concurrent bids reflect a contingency approach to the procurement process. Bid B-52198 contains a union printing shop requirement, while bid B-52297 removes this restriction. According to the procurement notice, if responsive and responsible bids are received for the union-restricted bid B-52198, the non-union bid B-52297 will be canceled prior to opening. This structure allows the state to proceed with procurement under either scenario while maintaining its preference for union printing when competitive bids are available, ensuring flexibility to meet project timelines while supporting labor standards when feasible.
