2025 ENGLISH Customer Guide

The City of Philadelphia Procurement Department is soliciting bids for flat printing services under the 2025 ENGLISH Customer Guide, with bids due September 1, 2026. The City will award this purchase as a whole or by line item, whichever serves its best interest, to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Sellers must quote all line items to be eligible for award and may not deliver or provide services until notified by the department.

Submission is required through the PHLContracts.phila.gov online portal. Bidders must complete all mandatory tabs — General, Items, Questions, Terms & Conditions, Attachments, and Summary — and enter unit costs and optional discounts for each item. All mandatory questions must be answered and terms and conditions accepted prior to submission. The checklist notes that although bidders will be asked a Local Business Entity (LBE) certification question during submission, the LBE Program does not apply to this flat printing procurement. Vendors may provide alternate descriptions or supplementary information in the Attachments tab and should validate their complete quote for errors before final submission through the portal.
