About this opportunity

County of Orange Auditor-Controller is requesting competitive bids for laser print check stock under IFB #003-3083403-LS, with bids due August 13, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. and questions due July 31, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. A 5% preference deduction applies to certified County of Orange Local Small Business (OCLSB) or Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) bidders; if the lowest bidder holds either certification, the contract is awarded at the original bid price with a maximum preference deduction of $100,000.

The County seeks 8.5" × 11" laser check stock in cut-sheet format with one check per sheet located at the bottom, featuring custom-color mountain and field artwork matching the County's existing design, the County seal, and security features including true watermarks, toner-retentive paper, chemically sensitive paper, UV light-sensitive fibers, microprint borders, warning banners, a copy VOID pantograph, and sequential inventory control numbers. Prior to the first production order, the selected contractor must provide 100 sample checks for acceptance testing by the County's bank.

Annual volume is 430,000 checks over a three-year initial term beginning October 25, 2026, with pricing available for either once-yearly bulk ordering or as-needed basis. Two optional two-year renewal periods are available subject to mutual written agreement and Board of Supervisors approval. Pricing must be firm and fixed for the entire contract term; any price decreases automatically extend to the County, and no increases are permitted during the first three years without documented cost-increase justification and 30 days' advance notice.

Delivery is required to the County Data Center loading dock Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with 24 hours' advance notice and tamper-evident, secure packaging on 48" × 40" pallets (64 boxes per pallet). The contractor bears all packaging, transportation, handling, and insurance costs. Award will be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. Responsive bids must include proof of valid UEI and D-U-N-S numbers, California Secretary of State registration, W-9 forms, certificates of insurance, and completion of all required certifications. Performance and labor/material payment bonds are required.
