2026 DNR public hunting area signage

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget is procuring 2026 DNR Public Hunting Area Signage through its Printing Services division. The procurement involves the manufacture of 1,000 boundary signs measuring 18 inches by 6 inches with 1/8 inch thickness, constructed from high-impact polystyrene plastic and screen printed with UV inhibitors and black ink (1/0 color) on white cover stock. The signs must be completed and ready for shipment within 10 business days of vendor proof approval, with delivery directed to Bradley M. Schumann, Print Consultant, at the General Services Building in Dimondale, Michigan. Vendors must submit an electronic PDF proof and provide carton packing for shipment on an F.O.B. destination basis with prepaid freight to the designated dock at 7461 Crowner Drive, Lansing, Michigan. The solicitation was posted on April 29, 2026, with a bid due date of May 4, 2026. Award will be made based on best price and value to the state, and vendors must submit a detailed estimate with their bid; failure to include this documentation will render the bid non-responsive and ineligible for consideration.

Only prequalified vendors registered with the State of Michigan and the Print & Mail Management division are eligible to submit bids, with pre-qualification taking approximately one week to process. All bids must be submitted online, and late submissions will not be accepted. Delivery is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 3:30 pm at the General Services Building dock, excluding standard holidays, with drivers required to obtain entry passes at the front office. Vendors must comply with specific pallet and packaging specifications, including the use of single-face hardwood pallets with maximum gross weights of 4,000 pounds and proper labeling with commodity numbers, descriptions, purchase order numbers, and packaging counts. The contract incorporates standard Michigan contract terms including a 45-calendar-day payment window for undisputed invoices via Electronic Funds Transfer, F.O.B. destination freight responsibility, and compliance with prevailing wage requirements and nondiscrimination laws. All intellectual property and materials become the exclusive property of the State of Michigan upon delivery, and the State retains broad audit and inspection rights for four years following contract completion. No specific budget range or award value has been disclosed in the available solicitation documents.
