Postage Meter and Mailing System

The government authority located in White Cloud, MI requires a vendor to provide a user-friendly postage meter and mailing system to process a monthly mail volume of approximately 10,000 pieces, with peak months reaching 40,000 or more pieces. The system must download United States Postal Service rate and software updates via internet or phone line, process batches of mail with various weights, thicknesses, sizes, and mixed flap orientations, and include a 30-pound scale and power stacker. Additionally, the equipment must weigh each piece, calculate rates, imprint postage, detect and properly meter overweight or oversized mail per Postal Service regulations, and provide departmental accounting. The buyer limits eligibility to USA organizations only and specifies that the vendor will perform the work offsite. The buyer seeks proposals for the budget and requires all questions to be submitted no later than August 28, 2026.
