Aride pupilometers

The State of Michigan, specifically through the Department of Technology, Management & Budget, is procuring ARIDE Pupilometers for use in law enforcement training and drug recognition efforts. The procurement covers the production of pupilometers in quantities of either 500 or 1,000 units, with precise specifications including a 6.08 by 3.83-inch size, printed on 30 mil white opaque rigid vinyl PVC material using one-color ink on both sides. The deliverables must be die-cut with rounded corners and packed in cartons not exceeding 40 pounds each, with vendors required to submit a high-resolution PDF proof for approval prior to production. The contract opportunity spans jurisdictions including Grand Traverse County and multiple Lansing City locations, with a posted date of October 31, 2025, and a response deadline of November 5, 2025. Evaluation criteria will focus on best price and value, with prequalification of vendors being mandatory. Vendors must submit a detailed quote letter, and failure to provide comprehensive documentation will result in disqualification.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. While no incumbent vendors are explicitly identified, the opportunity is linked to the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning and the U.S. Department of Transportation, suggesting this is part of a broader educational and law enforcement training initiative. The contract involves producing educational materials related to drug recognition, with a particular focus on standardized assessment tools for identifying drug impairment. The document does not specify a precise award value or budget range, but vendors must comply with the State of Michigan's Print & Mail Management terms and conditions, which include specific requirements for shipment, labeling, and invoice submission. Potential contractors must be registered with the State of Michigan and prepared to meet stringent delivery, quality, and documentation standards, with the understanding that all materials become the property of the State upon delivery.
