Description
The State of Illinois is soliciting a small‑purchase, open‑market bid to produce a variety of safety‑inspection certificate decals for commercial vehicles. The work consists of manufacturing pressure‑sensitive adhesive decals (windshield, trailer, and rebuilt certificates) in specified sizes, colors, serial numbering, and security features; packaging them in books of 10 and shipping them to IDOT facilities. The vendor must also supply transparent Mylar month‑ and year‑insert numerals, meet stringent performance tests (bake, soak, dry‑scrape, etc.), and provide a 24‑hour security guard service at the production plant. No subcontracting is permitted; all work must be performed on‑site, and the vendor must comply with IDOT’s standard contract terms, insurance, and prevailing‑wage requirements.
• Quantities total approximately 577,000 decals (180 k windshield, 45 k trailer, 45 k school‑bus, 7 k rebuilt, 300 k year‑insert stickers).
• Delivery must occur within 30 calendar days of proof approval, with strict delivery‑window hours (08:00‑11:00 or 13:00‑16:00).
• Vendor must provide samples, color proofs, and a confidential anti‑counterfeiting statement; all certificates must display “Printed by authority of the State of Illinois.”
