Vendors must submit a PDF color proof for departmental approval prior to production and are responsible for direct shipment to all 28 designated locations using the department's FedEx account number, with individual park allocations ranging from 500 to 15,000 units. The solicitation was posted on March 5, 2026, with a bid due date of March 11, 2026. Award decisions will be based on best price and value to the state, with evaluation criteria allowing the department to reject the lowest bid if quality concerns or inability to meet specifications exist. Only prequalified vendors registered with the State of Michigan Print & Mail Management program are eligible to respond, and vendors must submit detailed quote letters and samples as part of their bid response, with failure to do so resulting in disqualification.

The bid is restricted to vendors pre-qualified with the State of Michigan Print & Mail Management program and registered as state vendors, with pre-qualification requiring approximately one week. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses are identified in the procurement documents. All bids must be submitted online with freight costs included on an F.O.B. Destination, prepaid basis, with late submissions rejected.
