Bidders must submit five samples of 1386-ISOProx II cards and ten samples of DESFire EV3 cards (five pre-coded and five code-when-print configurations) with their response. The contract will be structured as a Blanket Purchase Agreement.

The state has historically expended an average of $22,500 annually for fiscal years 2023 through 2026 on printable proximity cards and related services. All pricing must be firm and fixed with no additional costs permitted beyond those quoted. The incumbent contractor operates under contract number FMDC23-0001. The contract period runs from December 1, 2026 through November 30, 2027, with the state holding the option to renew for two additional one-year periods at its sole discretion.

Vendors must achieve "Approved" and "Spend Authorized" registration status in MissouriBUYS (WebProcure/Proactis) to be eligible for award.
