2026 annin miosha mvpp flags

The State of Michigan's Department of Technology, Management & Budget is procuring 100 customized flags for the 2026 ANNIN MIOSHA Voluntary Protection Program (MVPP), a recognition initiative for Michigan businesses achieving occupational safety and health certification status. The flags must be manufactured using ANNIN brand materials and meet precise specifications including a finished size of 4 feet by 6 feet, 100% nylon bunting construction, two brass grommets positioned on the left side with 1.5-inch reinforced fabric sewn edges, and quarter-inch double-sewn reinforcement on the remaining three edges. Design specifications require 4-color logo and text printing on one side using dye sublimation process with UV fade-resistant ink, with electronic files and a proof required as part of the submission. Vendors must submit detailed quote letters with their bids, and award decisions will be based on best price and value to the state, meaning quality and ability to meet requirements are considered alongside cost. Turnaround time information is requested from bidders, and flags must be delivered in fold-down packaging to the PMM dock at 7461 Crowner Drive, Lansing, Michigan 48913, with shipments required to be F.O.B. Destination and prepaid. The bid request was posted on March 23, 2026, with a response due date of March 26, 2026.

Only prequalified vendors registered with the State of Michigan and capable of accepting Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) payments are eligible to bid on this opportunity; vendors not currently prequalified can initiate the process by contacting Andrew Hale at 517-636-0092 or halea@michigan.gov, with processing requiring approximately one week. ANNIN Flagmakers is identified as the incumbent supplier maintaining the current contract for flag production, though competitive bidding is being conducted. Vendors must comply with specific packing and delivery requirements, including single-face hardwood pallets with three 2" x 4" runners, 3/4" minimum deck board thickness, and maximum dimensions of 48" by 48" by 5'6" with gross weight not exceeding 4,000 pounds; all cartons must be uniformly labeled with commodity numbers, descriptions, purchase order numbers, package quantities, and piece counts. All electronic materials, including source files in original software format plus PDF versions, become the property of the State of Michigan upon delivery. Payment will be made within 45 calendar days of invoice receipt through EFT via the SIGMA VSS system, and vendors must maintain comprehensive warranties covering product quality, defect-free materials and workmanship, and merchantability. The specific budget or award value for this procurement is not detailed in the available documents, though funding derives from MIOSHA's annual operating budget allocated to the VPP program.
