DNR annual lock permit

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget (DTMB) Printing Services is conducting a procurement for the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Annual Lock Permit printing project through Request for Quote (RFQ #25*0644). The procurement seeks to print 100 lock permit documents, with key evaluation criteria focusing on vendor turnaround time, printed-in-Michigan status, and overall industry experience. Vendors must demonstrate a capability to complete the printing job within a 5-workday turnaround period and have substantial experience in the printing industry. The solicitation involves a competitive bidding process where vendors are assessed on their ability to provide the best value, with the current recommendation favoring IMAGE PRINTING based on their competitive pricing of $37.88. The due date for this procurement is September 23, 2025, with vendors required to submit their proposals through the appropriate channels. Vendors interested in challenging the award must submit electronic protests through the Vendor Self Service system by the specified deadline, with late protests being automatically disqualified.

Two vendors participated in this procurement: IMAGE PRINTING and RMI, both demonstrating 25 years of industry experience. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The procurement allows DTMB Printing Services to reserve the right to perform the work in-house or modify the award as needed. The total project value appears to be relatively small, with pricing ranging between $37.88 and $45.25 for the 100-document print run. The primary contact for this procurement is Brad Schumann, who can be reached at 517-636-6143 or SchumannB@michigan.gov for any additional inquiries or clarifications. While the document does not specify integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology, vendors are expected to meet the basic printing specifications for the DNR Annual Lock Permit.
