C+C CE Schedule for Spring 2022

Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC) is seeking a print vendor to produce and distribute the "C+C CE Schedule for Spring 2022" publication through a request for quote (RFQ) process. The procurement involves printing 150,000 copies of a 16-page, full-color, saddle-stitched publication on 60 lb. matte text paper, measuring 6" x 10.5" in portrait format. The successful vendor will be responsible for printing digital files provided by MHCC and delivering printed materials to the MHCC warehouse and Hoyt Street Post Office by February 25, 2022. Evaluation criteria will include price, quality, availability, experience, warranty, and expected delivery date, with MHCC reserving the right to determine the lowest responsible bidder. The RFQ was posted on January 18, 2022, with proposals due by January 24, 2022. Vendors are required to submit separate quotes for total print costs and mailing services, with MHCC providing postage and the approved periodical permit for mailing.

The RFQ demonstrates a preference for vendors that manufacture or produce materials in Oregon, with secondary preference given to vendors partially manufacturing or producing materials in the state. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned in the document. The procurement does not indicate any restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond to the RFQ. While the document does not specify a precise budget range or award value, it outlines the comprehensive scope of work involving printing 150,000 publication copies and associated mailing services. The procurement appears to be open to print vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications and delivery requirements outlined in the RFQ. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure that would require integration.
