Gas pump inspection decals

The State of Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services issued a Notice of Intent to Award for gas pump inspection decals under RFQ 26*0412, with a protest deadline of August 4, 2026.

The scope is production of 50,001 decals. The recommended awardee is Nev's Ink at a bid price of $2,636.05 with a six-week turnaround time. Six vendors submitted bids ranging from $2,580.00 to $4,517.00.

Evaluation prioritized best value to the State of Michigan, considering pricing, turnaround time, price hold duration, printed-in-Michigan preference, and relevant experience. Nev's Ink was selected despite not submitting the lowest bid, reflecting competitive performance across the evaluation criteria.

The Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services reserves the right to perform the work in-house. An actual award will be issued only after an order is received and a final decision is made to issue the project to the recommended vendor. Interested parties may protest through the Vendor Self Service portal within the specified deadline.
