Direct Mail Magazine Services

The San Jacinto Community College District in Harris County, Texas is soliciting sealed bids from qualified firms to provide direct mail magazine services. The scope of work includes producing a full-color, 12-page direct mail magazine publication targeted to seniors aged 60 and above within the SJCCD taxing district, with three editions per year. The RFP outlines requirements for the print publication, online edition, mailing list, and shipping. The proposed solicitation schedule includes issuance of the RFP on December 15, 2023, with a proposal submission deadline of January 12, 2024, and a target award date in February or March. The contract term is two years with three one-year renewal options. Proposals will be evaluated based on qualifications and experience of the firm and personnel, scope understanding and management, quality of product, references, exceptions to terms and conditions, and price.

The RFP does not give preference to historically underutilized or small businesses, but the awarded contractor may be required to track and report subcontractor payments and supplier diversity classifications. The RFP does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFP also does not specify a budget range for the contract.
