About this opportunity
The Massachusetts Department of Fire Services is soliciting bids for printing of recruitment graduation programs during FY27 under a Small Business Purchasing Program (SBPP) set-aside, with bids due July 10, 2026. SBPP-participating vendors receive evaluation and award preference; non-SBPP businesses will be considered only if the SBPP response pool is inadequate.
A critical locational restriction filters eligibility: the vendor must be located within 10 miles of the DFS Stow Campus (1 State Road, Stow, MA) and must personally deliver printed programs directly to DFS rather than use third-party carriers. For graduations held in Stow, delivery is required the morning of the ceremony one hour prior to the event (currently 11:00 AM). For graduations held elsewhere, DFS representatives will pick up programs at 8:00 AM on graduation day, though local pickup within 10 miles remains preferred. Vendors must state their distance from the DFS facility and indicate whether they will provide delivery or accept DFS pickup.
DFS will conduct approximately 30 graduations between July 1, 2026, and June 30, 2027, with exact dates provided to the awarded vendor. The scope is single 8.5" by 11" pages folded, printed front and back in color on 80# text gloss paper. Program proofs will be supplied via email PDF no later than 3:00 PM the day before each graduation. Vendors must submit separate quotes for quantities of 150, 200, and 250 programs per graduation. Any delivery charges not included in the base quotes should be submitted separately.
