FY'26 SY27 1HSS Reveal Package

The Government Publishing Office seeks printing of 400,000 complete FY'26 SY27 1HSS Reveal Packages on behalf of Marine Corps Recruiting Command, with bids due July 24, 2026, at 11:00 AM ET.

Each package comprises a carrier with pocket (400,000 units, 13.5" × 8.75" flat, folded to 6.75" × 5"), reply cards (800,000 units in two versions, 4" × 5.5"), and a 12-page self-cover brochure (400,000 units, 9" × 4.5" flat, folded to 4.5" × 4.5"). All printing must execute on a press capable of six-color printing in a single pass; digital printing is not acceptable, and subcontracting this core function will result in a non-responsibility determination.
