K25-0007-29 Printing & Mailing Services – Court Notices

The State of Maryland's Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) is seeking qualified vendors to provide printing and mailing services for court notices through a Request for Proposals (RFP) solicitation K25-0007-29. The selected contractor will be responsible for the full lifecycle of the mailing process, including project management, production printing, supplies purchasing, reporting, and bulk mailing. The contract term will be for one (1) year, with the AOC retaining four (4) one-year renewal options. The AOC estimates 40,000-80,000 printed pages per month for this service. Offerors must submit technical and financial proposals that meet the detailed requirements outlined in the RFP, which include equipment and supplies, file transfer, court notice specifications, mailing requirements, facility standards, reporting, invoicing, and program management. The AOC will evaluate proposals based on technical and pricing criteria to determine the most advantageous offer.

The AOC has established Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Veteran-owned Small Business Enterprise (VSBE) subcontracting goals of 20% and 1% respectively for this procurement. Offerors are not required to be certified as MBE or VSBE firms, but any subcontractors used to meet these goals must be certified. The incumbent vendor is not currently providing these services, as they are being handled in-house by the Judiciary. The solicitation is being publicly advertised on eMMA, and bids and proposals are accepted exclusively through the AOC's Procurement Portal.
