CHJ 549 health care request form

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget is soliciting bids for printing services on the CHJ 549 Health Care Request Form, a three-part NCR pad form, with bids due June 3, 2026. Only vendors pre-qualified with Print & Mail Management (PMM) and registered with the State of Michigan are eligible to bid.

The scope calls for 250,000 copies of an 8.5" × 11" upright three-part form printed on NCR paper (white, canary, and pink) with Part 1 and Part 2 printing identically and Part 3 printing differently. Part 2 requires microperforations across the 8.5" dimension positioned 5/16" down from the top. Forms must be bound as NCR pads at the top, packaged in shrink wrap with 100 sets per package plus chipboard, and organized as 10 packages containing 1,000 copies per carton on four-way skids. All shipments deliver to Jackson, Michigan in plain unmarked cartons labeled only with form number and quantity.

The state awards based on best price and value rather than lowest price alone and reserves the right to reject low bids if quality concerns or inability to meet requirements exist. Vendors must submit a detailed quote letter with their bid; failure to do so results in automatic disqualification. A PDF proof requires state approval prior to production. Evaluation criteria include vendor capability, past performance, and ability to meet all specified requirements and delivery obligations.

No under runs will be accepted; over runs are at the vendor's expense. All shipments are F.O.B. Destination, prepaid, to the dock at 7461 Crowner Drive, Lansing, Michigan 48913 (Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–3:30 p.m., excluding standard holidays). Drivers must obtain entry passes at the front office. Electronic files must be provided in source software format with all revisions, fonts, and images included, plus PDF format. Shipments require advance notification with a signed packing slip to Andrew Hale at halea3@michigan.gov or 517-636-7732.
