DNR non-resident recreation passport daily

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking a vendor to print 145,950 Non-Resident Recreation Passport Daily documents for state parks. The procurement requires precise printing specifications, including white 2-1/2" x 3-3/4" passports on 7 pt index stock using black and green ink, with sequential numbering from NRP 3286951 through NRP 3432900. Passports must be perforated with an adhesive strip for windshield mounting and include specific legal text and usage instructions. Delivery is mandated within twenty working days after proof approval, with an anticipated delivery timeframe of January 2025. The vendor must demonstrate comprehensive security measures, maintain complete control over printing and numbering processes, and be prepared for potential on-site facility inspections by State of Michigan representatives. Vendors will be evaluated on their ability to meet exact printing specifications, production security protocols, and delivery timelines, with the State reserving the right to conduct thorough facility reviews to determine contract award.

The contract appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation. The procurement does not explicitly indicate preferences for disadvantaged enterprises or small businesses. No incumbent vendors are mentioned in the documentation. The State of Michigan will require the selected vendor to integrate with existing state park passport distribution systems across 57 park locations, with daily passport volumes varying significantly by site (ranging from zero to 50,000 per location). While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the volume of 145,950 passports suggests a substantial contract value. The vendor must be capable of electronic documentation submission, be registered with the State of Michigan, and able to accept electronic funds transfer payments. Additional requirements include compliance with state procurement regulations, ability to deliver to the General Services Building dock in Lansing, and providing electronic copies of materials in source software format with all associated revisions and fonts.
