The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) has issued an Invitation for Sealed Bids (Solicitation Number 1464-26-R-IFBD-00004) for the auction of surplus card printing and envelope insertion equipment. The procurement involves the sale of one Datacard MX6100 Card Issuance System and one Datacard MXi610 Envelope Insertion System, being offered as a single lot in "As Is Condition". Sealed bids must be submitted by 2:00 p.m. on February 3, 2026, at the agency's office located at 1505 Eastover Drive, Jackson, Mississippi. The evaluation criteria will focus on the highest responsible bidder, with considerations given to bid price and the bidder's capability to disassemble and transport the equipment within the specified timeframe. Bidders are required to submit payment via certified check within five business days of award notification, with failure to do so resulting in disqualification and potential award to the next highest bidder. The winning bidder must complete equipment removal within seven business days following payment verification. Written clarification requests can be submitted to the Asset Management Office at least five days prior to the bid opening date.

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types mentioned in the solicitation. The auction is open to all potential bidders who can meet the disassembly and transportation requirements. The department reserves the right to reject any and all bids, define equals, and waive any informality in the bidding process. No incumbent vendors or existing integration requirements are specified in the documentation. While no specific budget range is provided, the procurement is for surplus equipment being sold as-is, suggesting the primary objective is equipment disposal rather than generating a predetermined revenue amount. The public is invited to attend the bid opening, though no award discussions will occur during the event. In the event of agency closure due to Force Majeure events, bids will be publicly opened and read aloud on the next available business day at the originally advertised time.
