Mdhhs oscoda PFAS metal DIE bond signage W/ hardware & poles

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is seeking bids for metal Dibond signage related to the Oscoda PFAS Environmental Site Factors (ESF) project in Huron County. The procurement involves producing 11 total sign sets, specifically 9 for Au Sable Fish and 2 for Clark's Marsh, with precise specifications including 16" x 22" finish size, 4/0c color printing, aluminum Dibond cover with plastic core, and matching 8-foot channel posts with tamper-resistant hardware. The signs must be direct-shipped to four Michigan locations, including Au Sable, Oscoda, and East Tawas, with a required completion timeline of 15-20 business days after proof approval. Bidders must be prequalified vendors and must submit a detailed estimate with their proposal, with the Department of Technology, Management & Budget reserving the right to award based on best price and value. Electronic PDF proofs are mandatory, and vendors will be disqualified for failure to meet specific fabrication requirements, such as cutting holes in the top and bottom of signs to fit channel posts.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Vendors must be registered with the State of Michigan and accept electronic funds transfer (EFT) payments, with a pre-qualification process taking approximately one week. The procurement is subject to standard State of Michigan contract terms, which include provisions for payment (undisputed amounts payable within 45 calendar days), warranties, termination conditions, and compliance expectations. While a specific budget range is not detailed in the documents, the bid request suggests this is a targeted procurement for environmental health advisory signage. Vendors must comply with comprehensive guidelines for electronic file submissions, including providing source software files with all revisions, fonts, and images, as well as PDF formats. Invoicing must be completed electronically, with submissions required to both the VSS system and DTMB-PrintingServices@michigan.gov.
