Stationery

The State of Arkansas, through the Arkansas Department of Transformation and Shared Services Office of State Procurement, is issuing an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for the Arkansas State Senate to obtain a contract for the provision of stationery products. The stationery items include letterhead, blank second sheets, #10 envelopes, business cards, note cards, envelopes for note cards, and note pads. The contractor will be responsible for the printing, packaging, and delivery of these stationery goods. The initial contract term is one year, with options to renew for up to six additional one-year terms, not to exceed a total of seven years. Prospective contractors must have an open and operational commercial printing facility and meet other qualifications. Pricing must be submitted on the official price sheet and must include all costs associated with fulfilling the requirements, including shipping and inside delivery service. The award will be made to the lowest-bidding, responsible prospective contractor on an all or none basis.

The solicitation does not appear to include any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent provider, if any, is not identified. Similarly, the available budget or expected award value range is not provided. The documents indicate this is an open and competitive procurement for stationery goods and services for the Arkansas State Senate, with the contract being awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
