MDHHS 1171 SPANISH (qty revised 8/11/26)

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget Printing Services has issued a Notice of Intent to Award for RFQ #26*0430 for the printing of MDHHS 1171 Spanish materials, with a proposal due date of August 19, 2026 (today). PRINTWELL has been recommended as the awardee based on best value evaluation; protests of the award decision must be submitted electronically through Vendor Self Service by the deadline specified on the notice.

The scope comprises production of 65,000 information booklets and applications across four product lines: 30,000 units each of 1171 Cash, 1171 SNAP, and 1171 SER Booklet materials, plus 30,000 units of 1171 CDC materials. The recommended vendor committed to a 20 working-day turnaround time.

PRINTWELL's quote is $29,059.72. Four competing bids ranged from $33,216.00 to $53,369.00, with turnaround times spanning 19 to 30 working days. The evaluation prioritized best value through a combination of pricing, price hold, printed-in-Michigan status, and Michigan experience criteria — PRINTWELL scored 20 points on pricing evaluation, 25 points on price hold, 25 points on printed-in-Michigan status, and 25 points on Michigan experience. The department reserves the right to award to a higher bidder if superior value is demonstrated through turnaround time or other criteria, or to perform the work in-house.

Brad Schumann serves as the print consultant and primary contact for project questions. Andrew Hale, Departmental Technician at DTMB-Printing Services, handles inquiries regarding the outsource process.
