19-20 Attorney General Biennial Report

The State of Michigan, through the Department of Technology, Management & Budget, is soliciting bids for printing services related to the 2019-2020 Attorney General Biennial Report. This procurement requires the production of 200 copies of a 400-page hard-bound book with a finished size of 6 by 9 inches, featuring Smyth-sewn binding with stamped case construction, Corona Bonded Leather case cloth in black, and imitation gold foil stamping on the front and spine along with blind stamping on all covers. The interior pages must be printed on 70# gloss text stock in black ink with black head and foot bands. Vendors must submit files in PDF format to size, provide one hard copy proof for approval prior to production, and deliver all finished books individually shrink-wrapped and carton-packed to the State of Michigan Print & Mail Management (PMM) dock located at 7461 Crowner Drive, Lansing, Michigan 48913. The contract will be awarded based on best price and value to the state, meaning the lowest bidder is not guaranteed selection if quality concerns or inability to meet requirements exist.

Destination, prepaid basis. Late bids will not be accepted, and all deliveries must comply with specific pallet and carton labeling requirements.
