MS-ENV-21 #10 special window envelope

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget is soliciting bids for 600,000 #10 special window envelopes (MS-ENV-21) with proposals due August 10, 2026. Only prequalified vendors with the State of Michigan Print & Mail Management (PMM) program are eligible; prequalification typically requires approximately one week upon submission of required information and vendor registration.

The scope specifies 4.125-inch by 9.5-inch finished-size envelopes with a 1-1/16-inch by 4-1/2-inch window positioned 3/4 inch from the left and 3/4 inch from the bottom with poly patching. Material is 24-pound white wove with gum seal side seam; printing is black ink on both sides with a tag line on the back flap. Packaging is 500 units per box, 2,500 units per carton, and 75,000 units per skid on four-way pallets meeting specified hardwood and dimensional standards. Vendors must submit a PDF proof for approval and a detailed quote letter with proposals; failure to include the quote letter results in automatic disqualification.

All bids must be submitted online with complete costs including freight to 7461 Crowner Drive, Lansing, Michigan 48913, F.O.B. Destination prepaid. The State applies an overs/unders policy: no underruns are permitted and any overruns are at the vendor's expense. The State will award based on best price and value rather than lowest bid alone, considering past quality performance and ability to meet specifications. Questions are due by the proposal deadline. Vendors must accept Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) payment and comply with Michigan prevailing wage and nondiscrimination requirements. Contract terms and conditions are governed by Michigan statute.
