TR-1 Michigan Registration Computer Prepared Application

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget's Printing Services has issued a Notice of Intent to Award for RFQ #26*0397 covering printing of 60,000 units of the TR-1 Michigan Registration Computer Prepared Application form, with protests due by the deadline posted on the notice.

LAWSON has been recommended for award at $1,050.00 with a seven-day turnaround. WALKER bid $1,900.00 with 20-day turnaround, and IMAGE PRINTING bid $2,210.00 with 15-day turnaround. All three bidders demonstrated capability to print in Michigan and met experience requirements. Evaluation prioritized best value to the state based on price, turnaround time, printed-in-Michigan status, and vendor experience, with Printing Services authorized to award to a higher bidder if superior turnaround or other criteria justified selection. LAWSON received maximum scores in price hold, printed-in-Michigan, and experience categories.

The actual award will issue only after an order is received and Printing Services confirms its decision to outsource the work rather than perform it in-house. Kristin Bergan, print consultant, is the primary contact at 517-636-7743 or BerganK@Michigan.gov.
