DI-93 chemical test and DI-177 BBU test report

The State of Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget is soliciting printing services for two distinct law enforcement forms used in driving under the influence investigations and chemical testing documentation. The procurement includes production of 12,500 DI-93 "Officer's Refusal to Submit to Chemical Test" forms organized into 500 packages of 25 forms each, and 25,000 DI-177 "Breath, Blood, Urine Test Report" forms organized into 500 packages of 50 forms each. The DI-93 forms are four-ply NCR carbonless forms measuring 8.5" x 11" in upright orientation with front pages printed in 100% black ink and back pages at 50% screen of black ink, designed with separate copies for driver hearing, officer use, and office records for administrative oversight hearings. The DI-177 forms are three-ply NCR carbonless forms in the same dimensions with pink and white stock designated for officer copies, driver notices of test results, and driver copies, also printed in black ink only. Both deliverables require collation into NCR pads, shrink-wrap packaging, and carton packing on four-way skids with maximum carton weights of 40 pounds. Vendors must submit electronic PDF proofs for approval prior to production and are required to provide detailed quote letters with their bids, with failure to do so resulting in automatic disqualification. Award will be determined based on best price and value to the state rather than lowest bid alone, with consideration given to quality concerns and ability to meet specifications. The solicitation was posted on October 30, 2024, with a due date of November 4, 2024.

Only prequalified vendors are eligible to respond to this printing services opportunity, and no specific set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises or small business designations are noted in the solicitation documents. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available documentation. The standard contract terms applicable to all Michigan state procurement apply to this engagement, including requirements that vendors pay all shipping costs with F.O.B. destination delivery, maintain records for four years post-contract, comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, and indemnify the state against claims arising from vendor performance. No specific budget allocation or award value is disclosed in the solicitation materials, and contract payment terms follow Michigan's standard practice of invoicing payment within 45 calendar days of receipt or final acceptance. The contract is governed by Michigan law with disputes resolved in the Michigan Court of Claims, and all intellectual property developed under the contract becomes the exclusive property of the state.
