This is a printing services bid request issued by the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget for the production of "What is the Law Book." The project requires printing 4,400 copies of a 12-page saddle-stitched book with a 4-page cover. The finished size is 5.5 x 8.5 inches in upright orientation. Vendors must submit detailed quote letters with their bids; failure to include a quote letter will result in disqualification. Electronic files will be provided by the department, and one PDF proof must be approved prior to the production run. The specifications include 4/4 color printing without bleeds on the cover and text pages, with cover stock of 65# white uncoated and text stock of 60# white offset. Books must be bundled in quantities of 25 and carton-packed with a maximum weight of 40 pounds per carton.

The department awards bids based on best price and value to the state, meaning the lowest bidder may not automatically receive the award if concerns exist regarding past quality, value, or ability to meet requirements. Only prequalified vendors are eligible for consideration. Specific pricing terms, contract duration, and renewal options are not detailed in this bid request document.
