Integrated Publication Supply Chain and Revenue Management Service

The government authority in Columbia, SC, requires an integrated publication supply chain and revenue management service. The buyer needs a vendor to produce and distribute scholarly practice books, research reports, and research guides, with an option to request printed proofs before full print jobs run. The vendor must provide a climate-controlled warehouse to accommodate existing inventory and future growth of 3 to 5 new titles annually. Additional requirements include managing direct-to-consumer sales, offering an eBook/webPDF digital access platform, accommodating institutional purchase orders and check or ACH payments, and handling collections for purchase orders, returned checks, and chargebacks. The vendor must also provide access to an electronic dashboard for agency personnel to generate reports and track royalties, alongside real-time electronic transfers of customer data compatible with agency databases. The buyer restricts eligibility to onshore USA organizations and seeks proposals for the budget. Vendors may submit responses digitally via email or online, and must submit all questions no later than September 1, 2026.
